Claim Text:
1. A method for compensating for transmission channel distortion effects for a data signal transmitted from a first computing device via the transmission channel to a second computing device comprising: combining communication information with extraneous information to create the data signal; combining the data signal with reference markers, the reference marker comprising predetermined signal parameters, to create a composite data signal, wherein the communication information is associated with a reference marker according to a first marker type and the extraneous information is associated with a reference marker according to a second marker type, and each first marker type reference marker is paired with a second marker type reference marker; transmitting the composite data signal from the first computing device to the second computing device; checking, at the second computing device, the received composite data signal to determine if each first marker type reference marker is present within the received composite data signal with its paired second marker type reference marker; extracting at least one reference marker and the data signal from the received composite data signal received at the second computing device; analysing the signal parameters of the extracted reference marker; comparing the analysed signal parameters of the extracted reference marker with the predetermined signal parameters of the reference marker in order to determine transmission channel distortions; and adjusting the extracted data signal based on the determined transmission channel distortions in order to compensate for transmission channel distortion effects.
