gollark: > In the early 1990s, O'Sullivan led a team at the CSIRO which patented, in 1996, the use of a related technique for reducing multipath interference of radio signals transmitted for computer networking. This technology is a part of all recent WiFi implementationsAh, so they contributed somewhat to WiFi.
gollark: CSIRO, that is.
gollark: It says that they came up with some sort of Fourier-transform-based thing used in the signalling?
gollark: I'm trying to confirm what you said about WiFi there.
gollark: I think that's America-based?
