Methods and systems are disclosed for sharing a communication resource. Two transmitters seek to use the same two communication slots to transmit two symbols each to a receiver. At each transmitter, data rotation provides two orthogonal combinations of two input symbols which are transmitted in the two slots. An additional phase rotation between slots at one of the transmitters provides phase diversity. The receiver receives superimposed signals from the transmitters, each slot providing information of all four symbols. Joint detection over the two slots provides coding gain and reliable recovery of all four symbols in the two communication slots. Performance results are provided. Disclosed techniques are lightweight and suitable for resource-constrained IoT devices.
