Patent attributes
The present invention relates to a system for transmitting data in the form of at least one sequence of pulses. A transmitter included in the system according to the invention comprises symbol encoding means ENC including at least one pulse generator PLSG, and at least one signal multiplier SGMk (for k=1 to K) for multiplying at least one pulse sequence Psqk with a tunable coding value defined by a control word WDk. By virtue of the invention, the information carried by a transmitted signal Tsg will essentially be represented by the power carried by at least one pulse sequence included in said signal Tsg, which power is related to the amplitude of the pulses. This information may then be recovered by a receiver without said receiver having to map precisely, with respect to time, the received pulse sequences.
