A method of sending a data signal comprising a series of symbols to a receiver includes generating a plurality of OFDM signals respectively transmitted by a plurality of transmitter entities. The method includes the steps of generating a plurality of a succession of pairs of symbols, including the substeps of generating at least one pair of symbols orthogonal to a current pair of symbols of said succession of pairs of symbols, generating at least one duplicated pair of symbols by duplicating the current pair of symbols, and allocating at least one current pair of symbols, at least one orthogonal pair of symbols and at least one duplicated pair of symbols to the transmitter entities of the plurality of transmitter entities, said substeps being repeated for all the pairs of symbols of said series of symbols, and generating the plurality of OFDM signals from the plurality of a succession of pairs of symbols, the OFDM signals including a plurality of sub-carriers equal to twice the number of transmitter entities.
A method of sending a data signal comprising a series of symbols called current to a receiver, said method comprising the generation of NE OFDM signals formed of Nf sub carriers respectively transmitted by NE transmitter entities, NE>1, Nf=2×NE, comprising the steps of:
The sending method according to 1, wherein the step of generating a plurality of a succession of pairs of symbols further comprises the substeps of:
A transmitter entity for sending a data signal comprising a series of symbols to a receiver, said series of symbols being intended to be sent in the form of a plurality of OFDM signals respectively transmitted by a plurality of transmitter entities, said transmitter entity comprising:
6-7. (canceled)
A management entity for sending a data signal comprising a series of symbols to a receiver, said series of symbols being intended to be transmitted in the form of a plurality of OFDM signals respectively transmitted by a plurality of transmitter entities connected to said management entity, said management entity comprising:
A transmitter entity for sending a data signal comprising a series of symbols to a receiver, said series of symbols being intended to be sent in the form of a plurality of OFDM signals respectively transmitted by a plurality of transmitter entities connected to a management entity, said transmitter entity comprising:
