  • Signal Modulation Technique

    Signal Modulation Technique
    With the composer George Antheil, they patented a technique of modulation of signals in expanded spectrum, the first version of what is known as jump in frequency. I used a pair of drilled and synchronized drums to transmit information through the air, without wires. It was designed so that Nazi defenses couldn't intercept the remote-controlled torpedoes of the allies, this system was used as a remote control to handle marine buoys. It is the basis on which all wireless data transmission systems
