why multiple people can use wireless earbuds in the same space without interference?

315 viewsEngineeringOther

I had this thought just now at the gym. I noticed multiple people, myself included, using wireless earbuds during our workouts – specifically AirPods.
My question is, if multiple people are using AirPods that work on the same frequency/signal, how come our music doesn’t all interfere with each other? How do each of our phones/AirPods differentiate from the others a few feet away from me?

oh dang you’re right. I remember back in 2016-2018 I would get interference in the gym. Not severely but I remember them making that interference noise every now n then
