1. At least one computer memory device storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform actions for accommodating non-Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing signals (non-OFDM signals), the actions 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 (1FFT) 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.
