A collision recovery method for use in a Wireless Location System includes receiving a transmission from a wireless transmitter at multiple signal collection systems and multiple antenna ports of each of the multiple signal collection systems. At each of the multiple signal collection systems, the transmission received at each antenna port is converted into a digital format, and digital data representative of the received transmission is stored. The transmission is then demodulated, and TDOA analysis is performed on the digital data from pairs of signal collection systems. The location of the wireless transmitter is determined using the TDOA data. The method further involves verifying that the RF data from each antenna port is from the wireless transmitter to be located, e.g., by demodulating a segment of the transmission received at each antenna port and verifying that at least a combination of the following fields is correct: MIN, MSID, TMSI, IMSI, and ESN.
