- Claim: 1. An apparatus for communicating in a wireless communication network, comprising: at least one processor; and at least one non-transitory computer-readable memory communicatively coupled to the at least one processor, the at least one non-transitory computer-readable memory including a set of instructions stored thereon and executable by the processor for: receiving a linear transformation signal transmitted from a wireless transmitter, the linear transformation signal having been generated by applying a data-bearing pre-coding transform to a first set of reference symbols; producing a second set of reference symbols; employing the second set of reference symbols to remove the first set of reference symbols from the linear transformation signal; and decoding the data-bearing pre-coding transform to recover data encoded thereon.
- Claim: 2. The apparatus recited in claim 1 , wherein the data-bearing pre-coding transform further comprises a precoding matrix computed from channel measurements.
- Claim: 3. The apparatus recited in claim 2 , wherein the precoding matrix is a Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) precoding matrix.
- Claim: 4. The apparatus recited in claim 1 , wherein the data-bearing pre-coding transform is generated with an encryption key, and the encryption key is employed by the receiver to decode the linear transformation signal.
- Claim: 5. The apparatus recited in claim 1 , wherein the linear transformation signal complies with a data transmission format for a cellular network, and the apparatus and the wireless transmitter communicate via a peer-to-peer network.
- Claim: 6. The apparatus recited in claim 1 , wherein the data-bearing pre-coding transform comprises time-varying features based on at least one of the data and channel measurements.
- Claim: 7. The apparatus recited in claim 1 , wherein the first set of reference symbol values comprises at least one of a predetermined data sequence known by both the apparatus and the wireless transmitter, symbol values received from a broadcast signal, and symbol values generated by an algorithm that is common to both the apparatus and the wireless transmitter.
- Claim: 8. A method performed by a wireless receiver in a wireless communication network, comprising: receiving a linear transformation signal transmitted from a wireless transmitter, the linear transformation signal having been generated by applying a data-bearing pre-coding transform to a first set of reference symbols; producing a second set of reference symbols; employing the second set of reference symbols to remove the first set of reference symbols from the linear transformation signal; and decoding the data-bearing pre-coding transform to recover data encoded thereon.
- Claim: 9. The method recited in claim 8 , wherein the data-bearing pre-coding transform further comprises a precoding matrix computed from channel measurements.
- Claim: 10. The method recited in claim 9 , wherein the precoding matrix is a Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) precoding matrix.
- Claim: 11. The method recited in claim 8 , wherein the data-bearing pre-coding transform is generated with an encryption key, and the encryption key is employed by the wireless receiver to decode the linear transformation signal.
- Claim: 12. The method recited in claim 8 , wherein the linear transformation signal complies with a data transmission format for a cellular network, and the wireless transmitter and the wireless receiver communicate via a peer-to-peer network.
- Claim: 13. The method recited in claim 8 , wherein the data-bearing pre-coding transform comprises time-varying features based on at least one of the information and channel measurements.
- Claim: 14. The method recited in claim 8 , wherein the first set of reference symbol values comprises at least one of a predetermined data sequence known by both the wireless transmitter and the wireless receiver, symbol values received from a broadcast signal, and symbol values generated by an algorithm that is common to both the wireless transmitter and the wireless receiver.
- Claim: 15. A non-transitory computer-readable memory including a set of instructions stored thereon and executable by a processor for: receiving a linear transformation signal transmitted from a wireless transmitter, the linear transformation signal having been generated by applying a data-bearing pre-coding transform to a first set of reference symbols; producing a second set of reference symbols; employing the second set of reference symbols to remove the first set of reference symbols from the linear transformation signal; and decoding the data-bearing pre-coding transform to recover data encoded thereon.
- Claim: 16. The non-transitory computer-readable memory recited in claim 15 , wherein the data-bearing pre-coding transform comprises a precoding matrix computed from channel measurements.
- Claim: 17. The non-transitory computer-readable memory recited in claim 16 , wherein the precoding matrix is a Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) precoding matrix.
- Claim: 18. The non-transitory computer-readable memory recited in claim 15 , wherein the data-bearing pre-coding transform is generated with an encryption key, and decoding employs the encryption key to decode the linear transformation signal.
- Claim: 19. The non-transitory computer-readable memory recited in claim 15 , wherein the linear transformation signal complies with a data transmission format for a cellular network, and a wireless receiver on which the processor resides and the wireless transmitter communicate via a peer-to-peer network.
- Claim: 20. The non-transitory computer-readable memory recited in claim 15 , wherein the data-bearing pre-coding transform comprises time-varying features based on at least one of the information and channel measurements.
- Claim: 21. The non-transitory computer-readable memory recited in claim 15 , wherein the first set of reference symbol values comprises at least one of a predetermined data sequence known by both a wireless receiver on which the processor resides and the wireless transmitter, symbol values received from a broadcast signal, and symbol values generated by an algorithm that is common to both the wireless transmitter and the wireless receiver.
