1. A method of receiving and reassembling non-sequential meta-data information embedded within an original burst carrier signal comprising:

  • receiving, by a receiving device, multiple composite burst carrier signals, each composite burst carrier signal comprising an original burst carrier signal and a meta-carrier signal, wherein the meta-carrier signal occupies at least a portion of a bandwidth of the original burst carrier signal and comprises one or more bits of meta-data information of a meta-data message about the original burst carrier signal that is non-contiguous in reference to a temporal order in which the meta-data information is received by the receiving device;

    detecting, by a detecting device, a Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) spreading sequence and extracting each of the meta-carrier signals from the composite burst carrier signals;

    determining a phase progression of the meta-carrier signals based on a Pseudo-Random Noise (PRN) spreading code;

    storing the one or more bits of information from each of the meta-carrier signals in a storage device; and

    reassembling the one or more bits of meta-data information from each meta-carrier signal into a sequential order after an entire meta-data message is received and extracted from one or more subsequently received composite burst carrier signals.
