SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING EXACT SYMBOL ERROR RATES OF FREQUENCY-HOPPED SIGNALS

摘要

A system and method for transmitting data over a wireless communication network. The method broadly includes generating a frequency hopping pattern spanning a plurality of time hops and a plurality of signal frequencies; generating a signal including a number of data symbols, the signal incorporating the frequency hopping pattern such that the symbols are distributed across the signal frequencies according to the frequency hopping pattern; transmitting the signal from a transmitting unit to a receiving unit over the wireless communication network; and generating an exact symbol error rate for the signal as received by the receiving unit.

1. A method of transmitting data over a wireless communication network, the method comprising the steps of:
generating a frequency hopping pattern spanning a plurality of time hops and a plurality of signal frequencies; generating a signal including a plurality of data symbols, the signal incorporating the frequency hopping pattern such that the symbols are distributed across the signal frequencies according to the frequency hopping pattern; transmitting the signal from a transmitting unit to a receiving unit over the wireless communication network; generating via the receiving unit an exact symbol error rate for the signal as received by the receiving unit; transmitting the exact symbol error rate from the receiving unit to the transmitting unit over the wireless communication network; modulating via the transmitting unit the signal according to the exact symbol error rate; and transmitting the modulated signal to the receiving unit over the wireless communication network.
