Abstract

Abstract ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A transmission system is described, suitable for transmitting multiple messages over a single carrier. At the transmitter, a message-modulated carrier is given an additional modulation by an identifiable signal. At the receiver, the carrier is identified by means of the additional modulation with messages being retrieved by demodulating the modulated carriers. The system is characterized in that, in the transmitter the carrier for each message is given an additional modulation causing a number of sub-carriers to be generated. The sub-carriers are synchronized in code and carrier frequency both mutually and jointly. The carrier is solely modulated by an identifiable signal. The carrier and sub-carriers are then added to from the transmitted carrier.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 119 words
A transmission system suited for the transmission of multiple messages over a single carrier, where at a transmitter the message-modulated carrier is given an additional modulation by an identifiable signal, and where at a receiver the carrier is identified by means of the additional modulation, and messages are retrieved by demodulating the modulated carriers, the system being characterized in that in the transmitter the carrier for each message is given an additional modulation in such a way us to generate a number of sub-carriers which are synchronized in code and carrier frequency both mutually and jointly with a carrier solely modulated by an identifiable signal, the latter carrier and the sub-carriers being then added to form the transmitted carrier.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 119 words
A transmission system suited for the transmission of multiple messages over a single carrier, where at a transmitter the message-modulated carrier is given an additional modulation by an identifiable signal, and where at a receiver the carrier is identified by means of the additional modulation, and messages are retrieved by demodulating the modulated carriers, the system being characterized in that in the transmitter the carrier for each message is given an additional modulation in such a way us to generate a number of sub-carriers which are synchronized in code and carrier frequency both mutually and jointly with a carrier solely modulated by an identifiable signal, the latter carrier and the sub-carriers being then added to form the transmitted carrier.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 47 words
The transmission system defined in claim 1, further characterized in that in the receiver, derivations of the sub-carriers and of the carrier itself are retrieved from the transmitted carrier by means of the additional modulation, and messages in the derived sub-carriers are retrieved through the carrier itself.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
A system as defined in claim 1, wherein the transmitter contains a code generator which produces the identifiable signal and the additional modulations for the transmitter.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A system as defined in claim 1, 2, or 3, wherein the receiver contains a code generator which is synchronized by means of the identifiable signal and which generates the additional modulations for the receiver.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 36 words
A system as defined in claim 1, wherein the transmitter contains a code generator which produces the identifiable signal and the additional modulations for the transmitter, and the additional modulations are sub-codes of the code generator.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 42 words
A system as defined in claim 1, wherein the receiver contains a code generator which is synchronized by means of the identifiable signal and which generates the additional modulating for the receiver, and the additional modulations are sub-codes of the code generator.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 61 words
A system as defined in claim 1, wherein the transmitter contains a code generator which produces the identifiable signal and the additional modulations for the transmitter, and wherein the receiver contains a code generator which is synchronized by means of the identifiable signal and which generates the additional modulations for the receiver, said additional modulations being sub-codes of the code generators.
