A system and method of providing a modulated signal useable in a signal transmission system. The method includes transforming, perhaps with respect to both time and frequency, a data frame including a plurality of data elements into a transformed data matrix. The transformed data matrix includes a plurality of transformed data elements where each of the plurality of transformed data elements is based upon each of the plurality of data elements. The method further includes generating the modulated signal in accordance with the transformed data elements of the transformed data matrix.
