Abstract:
Methods for communicating are disclosed. A method includes obtaining at least one input communication symbol selected from a set of communication symbols, converting the at least one input communication symbol into at least one transmittable waveform using at least one defined spiral waveform function, and transmitting the at least one transmittable waveform over a communication channel. Example spiral waveform functions include spline-based piecewise functions and Archimedes spiral functions.

Claim (Index 6):
A method for communicating, comprising:\n obtaining at least one input communication symbol selected from a set of communication symbols; converting the at least one input communication symbol into at least one transmittable waveform using at least one non-periodic function selected from a set of non-periodic functions; and transmitting the at least one transmittable waveform over a communication channel, wherein at least one non-periodic function selected from the set of non-periodic functions comprises a cyclical function formed from a pair of piecewise Archimedes Spiral functions each having the form f \ue8a0 ( t ) = ( a 0 + bt ) \ue89e e 2 \ue89e \u03c0 \ue89e \ue89e j C \ue89e t wherein a 0  is a constant defining a starting amplitude, b is a slope, C is a constant defining the rate of angular progression of the spiral in complex space, and j is an imaginary square root of minus one; wherein a first of the pair of piecewise Archimedes Spiral functions corresponds to a first half of a cycle time and is defined as having a first amplitude that linearly increases by a first slope, and a second of the pair of piecewise Archimedes Spiral functions corresponds to a second half of a cycle time and is defined as having a second amplitude that linearly decreases by a second slope, the first slope and the second slope being equal in magnitude, such that an amplitude derivative of the cyclical function is continuous at a maximum amplitude of the cyclical function.
