System and Method of Communication Using at Least Two Modulation Methods
First Claim
1. A communication system, comprising:
- a transmitter capable of transmitting at least two modulation methods, wherein the at least two modulation methods comprise a first modulation method and a second modulation, wherein the second method is different than the first modulation method, and wherein the first transceiver is configured to transmita first sequence, in the first modulation method, that indicates an impending change from the first modulation method to the second modulation method, anda second sequence, in the second modulation method, wherein the second sequence is transmitted after the first data sequence.

Abstract
A device may be capable of communicating using at least two type types of modulation methods. The device may include a transceiver capable of acting as a master according to a master/slave relationship in which communication from a slave to a master occurs in response to communication from the master to the slave. The master transceiver may send transmissions structured with a first portion and a payload portion. Information in the first portion may be modulated according to a first modulation method and indicate an impending change to a second modulation method, which is used for transmitting the payload portion. The discrete transmissions may be addressed for an intended destination of the payload portion.

19. A communications device, comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory having stored therein executable instructions for execution by the processor, wherein the executable instructions direct transmission of first data with a first modulation method followed by second data with a second modulation method, wherein the first modulation method is different than the second modulation method, and wherein the first data comprises an indication of an impending change from the first modulation method to the second modulation method. - View Dependent Claims (20)
