Abstract:
1. A method of data transmission, said method comprising: encoding an ordered set of m data values to produce a corresponding series of ordered n-tuples; and according to the series of ordered n-tuples, transmitting a plurality of bursts, each burst occupying at least one of a plurality n of frequency bands, wherein, for each of the plurality of bursts, a frequency band occupied by the burst is indicated by the order within its n-tuple of an element corresponding to the burst, and wherein a bandwidth of at least one of the plurality of bursts is at least two percent of the center frequency of the burst and wherein information is encoded into an additional modulation of at least one of the plurality of bursts; wherein, for each among at least some of the plurality of bursts, the burst corresponds to at least one element to the exclusion of other elements, and a value of at least one such corresponding elements indicates the additional modulation of the burst, and wherein, for each of the plurality of bursts, a time of transmission of the burst relative to the rest of the plurality of bursts is indicated by the order, within the series of ordered n-tuples, of the n-tuple that includes the element corresponding to the burst.
