Abstract: L'invention porte sur des procédés et sur un appareil permettant d'améliorer le rendement d'un système de communication étendu à antennes multiples. On utilise un multiplicateur sur le nombre de points de la transformée de Fourier rapide qui est supérieur au multiplicateur de la fréquence (largeur de bande) du système existant 802.11 a/g. Selon un mode de mise en oeuvre, on utilise une transformée de Fourier rapide de 256 points à 40 MHz (avec un  multiplicateur 4N sur le nombre de tonalités possibles et un multiplicateur 2N sur la fréquence). Alors que le rendement du symbole de modulation OFDM est amélioré, une surcharge additionnelle est requise dans l'apprentissage du préambule (la longueur du préambule étant proportionnelle au nombre de tonalités de la transformée de Fourier rapide). On obtient ainsi un nombre de constructions de préambules qui couple le rendement amélioré à des préambules plus courts. De plus, un type de tonalités amélioré assure des gains additionnels en efficience.
