Abstract
Methods and systems for communicating are disclosed. A method includes obtaining input communication symbols selected from a set of communication symbols, converting input communication symbols into transmittable waveforms using non-periodic functions, and transmitting transmittable waveforms over a communication channel. Another method includes receiving transmittable waveforms constructed using non-periodic functions and transmitted over a communication channel, and demodulating transmittable waveforms. A system includes a modulator adapted to obtain input communication symbols selected from a set of communication symbols and adapted to convert input communication symbols into transmittable waveforms using non-periodic functions, and a transmitter or transceiver adapted to transmit transmittable waveforms over a communication channel. Another system includes a receiver or transceiver adapted to receive transmittable waveforms transmitted over a communication channel and constructed using non-periodic functions, and a demodulator adapted to demodulate transmittable waveforms.
