    摘要: A method and system are provided for the transmission and reception of a composite radio-frequency (RF) signal including a supplemental signal, preferably representing encoded digital information, together with an analog signal which represents monophonic analog audio in the AM-band. The analog monophonic component of the composite signal may be received by conventional AM-band audio receivers. In certain embodiments, the analog signal is a single-sideband large-carrier or vestigial-sideband large-carrier signal, and the composite RF signal includes a digital signal whose spectrum is substantially confined in one inner sideband. In other embodiments, a baseband digital signal is combined with an analog monophonic audio signal and transmitted in upper inner and lower inner sidebands using nonlinear compatible quadrature amplitude modulation (NC-QAM). Additional digital signals' spectrum occupies the lower outer and upper outer sidebands. In certain embodiments, for each transmitted codeword, part of the codeword information is replicated by modulated signals in both the upper outer and lower outer sidebands, preferably with diversity delay between the outer sideband signals.

    摘要: A method and system are provided for the synchronous transmission and reception of multiplexed digital signals such as spread spectrum. The system uses biorthogonal modulation of a plurality of orthogonal signals, preferably wideband, together with simultaneous orthogonal multiplexing. The method is found to significantly mitigate the crosscorrelation interference that is caused by the interaction between the multiplexed signals. The system transmits a lesser number of multiplexed orthogonal signals than would be required in the corresponding antipodal system, thereby reducing the crosscorrelation interference, while maintaining the same information throughput. The bit error rate of the system is reduced. The method combines aspects of unequal error protection (UEP) error correction coding (ECC) with a receiver architecture for biorthogonal signals. The system exhibits a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) improvement in the detection of some fraction of the encoded digital data bits. This facilitates the use of additional error control redundancy in the remaining data bits, which results in an overall improvement in the decoded error rate performance.

    摘要: A method and system are provided for the transmission and reception of a varying reference signal together with a data-modulated signal in a communication system. The reference signal is modulated by multiplying it by a predetermined reference value sequence and is summed together with the data-modulated signal in the transmitter system. The reference signal and reference value sequence generators are identically embodied in both the transmitter and receiver systems. The receiver system determines an estimate of the transmitted reference signal by canceling the effect of the reference signal modulation. The estimated reference signal may be removed from the received signal prior to demodulation of the data-modulated signal by subtracting the unmodulated reference signal estimate, which is multiplied in the receiver system with the known reference value sequence.
