Use of 

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)

, which is used by 802.11a/n and 802.11g/n, can help to reduce 

issues seen in high multipath environments. 
If using 802.11b in a high multipath environment, lower data rates should be used in those areas (e.g. 1 and 2 Mbps). 

Use of antenna diversity can also help in such environments. 
 

These are many tools and applications that can be utilized to verify coverage, quality and configuration.
