First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of operating a computing device to accommodate non-Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing signals (non-OFDM signals), the method comprising:
- a) receiving a non-OFDM signal;
b) processing the non-OFDM signal into a created OFDM signal;
c) processing the created OFDM signal;
d) transmitting OFDM and non-OFDM signals; and
e) processing the non-OFDM signals to transmit over a first set of sub-channels, processing the OFDM signals to transmit over a second set of sub-channels and performing an Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) of the signals.

Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM) communication of non-OFDM radio signals are disclosed. The non-OFDM radio signals are force-modulated into OFDM signals. In one example, a non-OFDM signal is received and is processed into an OFDM signal to produce a created OFDM signal. An actual OFDM signal is also received and is processed together with the created OFDM signal.
