Pulse position modulation communications protocol

A method for modulating a radio signal has the steps of: predetermining a first time interval so as to define a data word; generating a synchronization pulse, the synchronization pulse initiating a single data word having a length of the predetermined first time interval; and generating a single dat...

Zusammenfassung:A method for modulating a radio signal has the steps of: predetermining a first time interval so as to define a data word; generating a synchronization pulse, the synchronization pulse initiating a single data word having a length of the predetermined first time interval; and generating a single data pulse within the data word after a second time interval with respect to the synchronization pulse, the length of the second time interval defining at least one character. Defining at least one character by a single data pulse after a second time interval with respect to the synchronization pulse enhances an energy efficiency of the transmitted radio signal while mitigating a duty cycle thereof.
