Patent ID: 7571378

Claim:
A method for the transmission of information, said information containing at least a quantity of n information carrier cells, with n being greater than or equal to 2, said method comprising at least the following steps: generating a mask {Mi} i=1,n of n cells corresponding to n information carrier cells, from an information item common to the cells sent and using a law Deriv such that: { Mi } i=1,n =Deriv( T, j, k ) (1); wherein T corresponds to a frame number, j corresponds to a bit number, and k corresponds to a transmitter reference number; generating a linear combination on n information carrier cells with the n cells of the generated mask Mi to form a resultant word of n cells; performing a linear operation on each of the n cells of the resultant word to generate a cell B T,j ; transmitting a p number of cells B T,j , where p is greater than n; receiving the p transmitted B T,j cells; reconstituting the information carrier cells by computing, for each cell B T,j received, the corresponding mask {Mi} i=1,n according to relationship (1); forming a reversible linear equation of p cells using received bit B T,j where j=1 to p, and corresponding mask Mj, when the number p of cells received is greater than n; and inverting the linear equation of p cells formed to generate the n information carrier cells.
