Abstract:
Embodiments herein provide for a Low-Frequency (LF) broadcast system that improves on the LORAN-C system to help optimize the use of available spectrum while modernizing the signal structure of broadcast signals. In particular, embodiments can utilize an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) signal structure to broadcast timing and data signals in successive symbols of an OFDM resource block. Signals can include, for example, comb-1, comb-2, or comb-3 signal structures. Other signal aspects such as muting schemes, modulation, frequency offsets, and the like may vary, depending on desired functionality.
