1. A method for analyzing an electromagnetic (EM) carrier signal that is operating outside transmission parameters, the method comprising:
- determining, using a processing device, that an original carrier signal is operating outside one or more transmission parameters;
modulating, using a modulator and in response to determining that the original carrier signal is operating outside the one or more transmission parameters, the original carrier signal and a meta-carrier signal, the meta-carrier signal comprising meta-data that identifies a transmission source, such that a modulated composite carrier signal results; and
transmitting, using a transmitting device, the composite carrier signal to a remote receiving device.

17. A method of receiving and identifying an electromagnetic (EM) carrier signal, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by a receiving device, a modulated composite carrier signal comprising an original carrier signal and a meta-carrier signal; detecting, by a processing device, a modulated power envelope of the composite carrier signal; determining, by the processing device, based on the detection of the modulated power envelope of the composite carrier signal, that the composite carrier signal contains information that identifies a transmission source of the composite carrier signal; demodulating, using a demodulator, the modulated composite carrier signal such that a demodulated original carrier signal and a demodulated meta-carrier signal result; and decoding, using a decoder, the demodulated meta-carrier signal such that meta-data that identifies the transmission source of the composite carrier signal results. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
