1. An electronic communication device comprising:
- a signal repeater coupled to an aerial drone, the signal repeater comprising;
a signal receiver, anda signal transmitter,wherein the signal repeater is configured to perform operations comprising;
receiving a first signal from a second device, the first signal including a carrier signal modulated with a first modulation signal;
adding a second modulation signal to the carrier signal of the first signal to produce a combined signal, wherein the second modulation signal is a transpositional modulation (TM) signal and the first modulation signal is a non-TM signal; and
transmitting the combined signal.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium for receiving, by a first device, a first signal from a second device, the first signal including a carrier signal modulated with a first modulation signal. Detecting a frequency of the carrier signal by performing a carrier extraction (CAREX) process on the first signal. Adding a second modulation signal to the carrier signal of the first signal to produce a combined signal, wherein the second modulation signal is a transpositional modulation (TM) signal and the first modulation signal is a non-TM signal. Transmitting the combined signal.
