  3. Receiving station having multiple antennas, which causes the signal to take multiple paths to the CPU
  4. Result of using a signal splitter to create multiple signal paths between sending and receiving stations
Explanation
Answer - A - Multipath is a set of negative effects induced on a wireless LAN by reflected RF signals arriving at the receiver along with the main signal.

Key Takeaway: Multipath is the set of negative effects on a wireless LAN that is a result of multiple RF signals arriving at the same destination at almost the same time from the same source. Multipath is disruptive when there are reflective objects in the signal path from the transmitter to the receiver.
