Patent ID: 8923364

Claim:
A method for transmitting data over discontiguous portions of radio frequency spectrum, the method comprising: receiving data that is to be wirelessly transmitted to a remote computing device; generating a first signal that encodes the data across a band of radio frequencies; splitting the first signal into multiple signals, each of the multiple signals being associated with a different portion of the band of radio frequencies; filtering each of the multiple signals to isolate each respective one of the multiple signals to its associated portion of the band of radio frequencies; digitally filtering at least one of the multiple signals to: reduce a power level of certain frequencies within the portion of the band of radio frequencies that is associated with the at least one of the multiple signals, and generate multiple discontiguous portions within the portion of the band of radio frequencies that is associated with the at least one of the multiple signals; frequency translating the at least one of the multiple signals; combining each of the multiple signals after the filtering of each of the multiple signals, including the at least one of the multiple signals that has also been frequency translated, to generate a second signal that encodes the data across multiple discontiguous bands of radio frequencies; and providing the second signal for wireless transmission by an antenna.
