  • receiving a data message from the wireless client device;

    transmitting multiple parts of a response data message to the wireless client device across two types of wireless communication channels simultaneously by;

    transmitting a first part of the response data message to the wireless client device across a first wireless communication channel via a selected one or more transmitters of an array of two or more transmitters of a first transmitter type that in combination cover one or more areas of a room;

    simultaneously transmitting a second part of the response data message to the wireless client device across a second wireless communication channel via one or more transmitters of a second transmitter type, different than the first transmitter type; and

    encoding the first part of the response data message transmitted to the wireless client device over the selected one or more transmitters of the array of two or more transmitters of the first transmitter type, wherein the encoding is based on a location of the wireless client device in the room with respect to two or more transmitters in the array of transmitters of the first transmitter type.
