Claim Text:
1. A system comprising: an edge detector having an input coupled to receive an input signal and having an output that generates a transmit information signal, the transmit information signal including an edge-indicating pulse generated when the input signal transitions from a first state to a second state, the edge-indicating pulse having a duration less than a bit period time of the input signal; a modulator having an input to receive the transmit information signal from the edge detector and having an output that generates a transmit output signal having a first output level when the transmit information signal is in a first state, and having a second output level when the transmit information signal is in a second state; and a transmit transducer coupled to receive the output of the modulator and having an output to generate a modulated electromagnetic signal including a first pulse when the input signal transitions from the second state to the first state, and to generate a second pulse when the input signal transitions from the first state to the second state; wherein the transmit information signal has a first edge-indicating pulse corresponding to a logic-low to a logic-high transition in the input signal and a second edge-indicating pulse corresponding to a logic-high to a logic-low transition in the input signal, the first edge-indicating pulse having a different duration than the second edge-indicating pulse.
