Claim:
1. A system for communicating over a wireless channel, comprising: a detector configured to detect a fading condition of a wireless channel; a first modulator configured to modulate a first data stream onto a first carrier signal having a center frequency of the wireless channel; a first transducer coupled to the first modulator and configured to generate from the first carrier signal a first polarized carrier signal having a first polarization at the center frequency of the wireless channel; a second modulator configured to modulate a second data stream onto a second carrier signal having the center frequency of the wireless channel; a second transducer coupled to the second modulator and configured to generate from the second carrier signal a second polarized carrier signal having a second polarization at the center frequency of the wireless channel, the first polarization being opposite of the second polarization; a passive splitter configured to split an original data stream into the first data stream and the second data stream, the first data stream and the second data stream containing different portions of the original data stream, and the first data stream and the second data stream being capable of being concatenated by a receiving site to recreate the original data stream, the passive splitter being coupled to communicate the first data stream to the first modulator and coupled to communicate the second data stream to the second modulator; a router configured to: if the fading condition is detected, communicate the original data stream to the first modulator as the first data stream and to the second modulator as the second data stream; and if the fading condition is not detected, communicate the original data stream to the passive splitter to split the original data stream into the first data stream and the second data stream; and a transmit antenna coupled to the first and second transducers and configured to transmit the first polarized carrier signal and the second polarized carrier signal on the wireless channel.
