1. A transceiver for providing wireless communications compatible with 10 BASE-T Ethernet, the transceiver comprising:
- A) an absence detector/determiner, operably coupled to a transmitted signal, for determining an absence of the transmitted signal and passing the absence to an activity detector in order to differentiate between a reflected signal and a received signal, in a half duplex system; and
B) the activity detector, operably coupled to receive the received signal and to the absence detector, for determining an operation time signal in which the received signal is absent.

Abstract
The present invention provides a method (200), transceiver (100), and system (900) for providing wireless communication compatible with 10BASE-T Ethernet. In the transceiver, an absence detector receives a transmitted signal, determines an absence of the transmitted signal, and passes the absence to an activity detector in order to differentiate between a reflected signal and a received signal in a half duplex system. The activity detector receives the received signal and determines an operation time signal in which the received signal is absent.
