Abstract
Improved apparatus and methods for utilizing holographic waveforms for a variety of purposes including communication. In one exemplary embodiment, the holographic waveforms are wideband in nature and transmitted over an RF bearer medium to provide, inter alia, highly covert and robust communications. A software defined radio (SDR) architecture is utilized to permit flexibility in changing e.g., air interfaces and other parameters associated with the apparatus.
