A swept frequency communication system includes a modulator that multiplies a frequency sweep signal with one or more underlying modulated communication signals to produce a swept frequency signal having a number of headerless tracks located directly adjacent one another in the swept frequency/time domain. A demodulator receives the swept frequency signal after that signal has been passed through a wireless channel, isolates a particular track of the received swept frequency signal to prevent a near/far problem, A/D converts the isolated track, resweeps the digitized isolated track, and then equalizes the isolated track using a blind channel equalizer to eliminate time-varying amplitude/phase impairments caused by transmission of that track through the wireless channel. The demodulator then removes the sweep signal from the equalized swept frequency track and decodes or demodulates the underlying modulated communication signal.
