Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for transmitting a vector having at least two vector components, each of the vector components described in a frequency. Each vector is represented as a bit number with a predetermined number of bit levels. The bit numbers are encoded according to a priority of the bit levels and the encoded bit numbers are transmitted.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A computer program stored in memory, executable by a processor to perform a method of transmitting a vector having at least two vector components, each of which describes a frequency, the method comprising: calculating each vector component as a bit number with a varying number of bit levels, wherein each of the bit levels has an assigned priority that is applied throughout each of the at least two vector components; assigning an order to the at least two…
