<p>A system for transmitting a composite signal comprising a data transmission signal component and an AM broadcast signal component. The broadcast signal component may be monophonic or stereophonic. The level of the data signal component is made a function of the modulation level so that the data signal is masked by the program modulation and, therefore, AM radio listeners will not be disturbed by the data signal. The rate of data transmission is reduced as the level of the data signal is reduced. The data signal is in quadrature with the AM carrier so as to minimize detection of the data signal by an envelope demodulator. Suitable data receivers are also disclosed.</p> |
