Abstract
A plurality of carrier signals in a wide band signal is converted into a plurality of digital carrier signals. Each of the plurality of carrier signals is at a respective frequency in the wide band signal. At least one of the plurality of digital carrier signals is translated to a different frequency.
Claims16
A method of translating carriers, comprising:
- converting a plurality of analog carrier signals within a wideband signal into a plurality of digital carrier signals, each of the analog carrier signals at a respective frequency in the wideband signal;
- packetizing the plurality of digital carrier signals into a plurality of digital packet streams;
- sending each of the plurality of digital packet streams to separate and distinct emitter locations;
- and
- translating each of the plurality of digital packet streams to a different frequency at each of the emitter locations, to adjust a position of the digital packet stream within the wideband signal.
