Demodulating a modulated signal. A method may include receiving a modulated signal, wherein the modulated signal is a signal modulated according to a modulation function varying faster than the signal. The modulation function is a function of the signal. The modulated signal received is demodulated with an artificial neural network system, or ANN system, which is trained to identify bit values from signal patterns as caused by the modulation function, by identifying bit values from patterns of the modulated signal received. Related modulation and demodulation systems are disclosed.
