1. A method for communication through a multiple access communication network, the method comprising:
- receiving a first signal from a first device, wherein the first signal is spread using a first predetermined pseudo-noise (PN) code, wherein the first signal has a first random timing offset, and further wherein the first signal includes a first payload data;
selecting a first destination for the first payload data based on a first characteristic of the multiple access communication network; and
transmitting the first payload data to the selected first destination.

Abstract
A method of communicating through a random phase multiple access network is provided. A signal that has been spread using a pseudo-noise code and offset by a random timing offset and that contains payload data is received from a device. A destination is selected for the payload data based on a characteristic of the multiple access network. The payload data is transmitted to the selected destination.

18. An apparatus for communicating through a multiple access communication network, the apparatus comprising:
-
a receiver configured to receive a first signal from a first device, wherein the first signal is spread using a first predetermined pseudo-noise (PN) code, wherein the first signal has a first random timing offset, and further wherein the first signal includes a first payload data; a transmitter; and a controller electrically coupled to the receiver and transmitter and operable to direct reception of the first signal with the receiver, to select a first destination for the first payload data from one or more devices based on a characteristic of the multiple access communication network, and to direct transmission of the first payload data to the first destination with the transmitter.
