Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining, by a first device, that a second device is within range for direct communications and that the second device is capable of performing transpositional modulation (TM) communications. Determining to use transpositional modulation to send data to the second device. Sending the data to the second device using a TM signal.
Claims18
A mobile device comprising:
- one or more processors;
- a transpositional modulation (TM) transmitter coupled to the one or more processors;
- a TM receiver coupled to the one or more processors;
- and
- a data store coupled to the one or more processors having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, from a base station, an query signal requesting whether the mobile device is capable of performing TM communications;
- sending, to the base station and in response to the query signal, a response signal indicating that the mobile device is capable of performing TM communications;
- and
- conducting electronic communications, using TM signals, with the base station.
