1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at a first processor, data, wherein the data comprises a plurality of data streams with unique synchronization sequences therein;
transmitting, by the transmitter, the data via a magnetic field, wherein each of the data streams is simultaneously transmitted on a respective one of a plurality of channels, and wherein each of the plurality of channels comprises a unique direction of the magnetic field;
detecting, by a magnetometer, the magnetic field;
generating, by the magnetometer, a signal indicative of the detected magnetic field;
receiving, by a second processor, the signal indicative of the magnetic field from the magnetometer;
monitoring, by the second processor, the signal for a plurality of combinations of the unique synchronization sequences, wherein each of the combinations comprises one of the unique synchronization sequences on a respective one of the plurality of channels; and
deciphering, by the second processor, the data from the detected magnetic field based at least in part on an identification of one of the plurality of combinations of the unique synchronization sequences on the plurality of channels.
