transmitting the combined data stream to the first tag and the second tag.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

weighting the first data stream based upon a transmission power of the first data stream being different than a transmission power of the second data stream; and

weighting the second data stream based upon the transmission power of the first data stream being different than the transmission power of the second data stream.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first gold code and the second gold code have different lengths.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating, at the access point, a broadcast data stream; and

spreading the broadcast data stream using a broadcast gold code known to the first tag and the second tag.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein combing into the combined data stream further comprises combining the spread broadcast data stream.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein a length of the broadcast gold code is larger than a length of the first gold code and larger than a length of the second gold code.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the combined data stream consists of a real component and an imaginary component, wherein the combined data stream is transmitted on one of the real component or the imaginary component, and wherein the method further comprises transmitting the spread broadcast data stream on the other component.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting a broadcast preamble prior to the transmission of the combined data stream.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

determining a transmit power of the combined data stream;

boosting a transmit power of the broadcast preamble to be higher that the transmit power of the combined data stream.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining a first random chip delay;

determining a second random chip delay;

waiting the first random chip delay before combining the first data stream; and

waiting the second random chip delay before combining the second data stream.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable medium, at an access point, having instructions stored thereon, the instructions comprising:

instructions to generate, using one or more processors at the access point, a first data stream;

instructions to generate, using the one or more processors at the access point, a second data stream;

instructions to spread the first data stream using a first gold code unique to a first tag;

instructions to spread the second data stream using a second gold code unique to a second tag;

instructions to combine into a combined data stream the spread first data stream and the spread second data stream; and

instructions to transmit the combined data stream to the first tag and the second tag.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 11 , further comprising:

instructions to weigh the first data stream based upon a transmission power of the first data stream being different than a transmission power of the second data stream; and

instructions to weigh the second data stream based upon the transmission power of the first data stream being different than the transmission power of the second data stream.
