It is an objective of the current disclosure to design a novel communications system capable of offering improvement in channel capacity compared to current communications systems. To this end, the disclosure teaches how to add new information to a select number of Degrees of Freedom (DOF), through three design steps. All three steps aim to design the system such that the minimum required average received Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) is reduced for a given desired capacity and for a given specified mask. The first design step identifies the select number of DOF required for achieving the desired capacity. The second design step enhances the contribution of the selected DOF by matching them to the specified mask. This step aims to have the transmitted signal comply with the specified mask. The third design step randomizes the DOF using a pseudo-random phase. This step aims to reduce the required average received SNR.
