Abstract
A communication method includes establishing a wideband communication link between a first device and a second device, transmitting a first set of consecutive data bits from the first device to the second device by means of a first set of pulses, and transmitting a second set of bits from the second device to the first device at least partially simultaneously or at least partially interlaced with the first set of bits.

A communication method comprising:
- establishing a wideband communication link between a first device and a second device,
- receiving a first set of consecutive data bits from said first device at said second device by means of a first set of pulses,
- transmitting a second set of bits from said second device to said first device at least partially simultaneously or at least partially interlaced with said first set of bits characterized by:
- negotiating a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) for said communication link, at least when the PRF for the communication link is not already known, and
- negotiating on the basis of the PRF of said communication link, whether said second set of bits is sent interlaced with the first set of bits.
A system comprising
- a first device and a second device configured to establish a wideband communication link between said first and second devices, said first device comprising a first transmitter configured to send a first set of consecutive data bits to said second device and said second device comprising a first receiver configured to receive said first set of consecutive data bits from said first device, said first set of bits being sent by means of a first set of pulses,
- said second device further comprises a second transmitter configured to send a second set of bits to said first device at least partially simultaneously or at least partially interlaced with receiving said first set of bits from said first device, and
- said first device further comprises a second receiver configured to receive said second set of bits from said second device at least partially simultaneously or at least partially interlaced with sending said first set of bits to said second device, characterized in that the first device and the second device are further configured:
- to negotiate a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) for said communication link, at least when the PRF for the communication link is not already known, and
- to negotiate on the basis of the PRF of said communication link, whether said second set of bits is sent interlaced with the first set of bits.
A device comprising
- a receiver configured to receive a first set of consecutive data bits from another device, said first set of bits being sent by means of a first set of pulses, and
- a transmitter configured to send a second set of bits to said another device at least partially simultaneously or at least partially interlaced with receiving said first set of bits from said another device, characterized in that said device further comprises:
- means for negotiating a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) for said communication link, at least when the PRF for the communication link is not already known, and
- means for negotiating on the basis of the PRF of said communication link, whether said second set of bits is sent interlaced with the first set of bits.
A device comprising
- a transmitter configured to send a first set of consecutive data bits to another device by means of a first set of pulses, and
- a receiver configured to receive a second set of bits from said another device at least partially simultaneously or at least partially interlaced with sending said first set of bits to said another device, characterized in that said device further comprises:
- means for negotiating a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) for said communication link, at least when the PRF for the communication link is not already known, and
- means for negotiating on the basis of the PRF of said communication link, whether said second set of bits is sent interlaced with the first set of bits.
A computer-readable medium comprising a computer program executable in a communication device, the communication device being configured to receive a first set of consecutive data bits from another device, said first set of bits being sent by means of pulses, said computer program controlling said communication device to
- send a second set of bits to said another device at least partially simultaneously or at least partially interlaced with receiving said first set of bits from said another device, characterized by said computer program further controlling said communication device
- to negotiate a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) for said communication link, at least when the PRF for the communication link is not already known, and
- to negotiate on the basis of the PRF of said communication link, whether said second set of bits is sent interlaced with the first set of bits.
A computer-readable medium comprising a computer program executable in a communication device, the communication device being configured to send a first set of consecutive data bits to another device by means of pulses, said computer program controlling said communication device to
- receive a second set of bits from said another device at least partially simultaneously or at least partially interlaced with sending said first set of bits to said another device, characterized by said computer program further controlling said communication device:
- to negotiate a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) for said communication link, at least when the PRF for the communication link is not already known, and
- to negotiate on the basis of the PRF of said communication link, whether said second set of bits is sent interlaced with the first set of bits.
