Abstract

A method of receiving and reassembling non-sequential meta-data information embedded within an original burst carrier signal that receives multiple composite burst carrier signals each with an original burst carrier signal and a meta-carrier signal, wherein the meta-carrier signal occupies at least a portion of a bandwidth of the original burst carrier signal and includes one or more bits of meta-data information of a meta-data message about the original burst carrier signal that is non-contiguous in reference to a temporal order in which the meta-data information is received, detecting a DSSS spreading sequence and extracting the meta-carrier signals from the composite burst carrier signals, determining a phase progression of the meta-carrier signals based on a PRN spreading code, and reassembling the one or more bits of meta-data information from each meta-carrier signal into a sequential order after an entire meta-data message is received and extracted.
