Abstract
A method of data transmission includes transmitting a magnetic signal that is modulated with the bit stream, the magnetic signal having a nominal frequency and being formed of a high frequency and a low frequency, the nominal frequency being the average frequency of the magnetic signal. The bit stream is modulated onto the magnetic signal by encoding the bit stream into the magnetic signal, where each bit in the bit stream is represented by a transition between adjoining data symbols formed of K repetitions of of a first state or a second state. The first state of the pair of states includes M/2 cycles of the nominal frequency with a signal at the high frequency and M/2 cycles of the nominal frequency with a signal at the low frequency. The second state is complementary to the first state.
