A method and apparatus for producing a transmission of constant envelope on a carrier signal. All possible combinations of all component codes for phases for producing the transmission are defined. Desired component code powers and desired intercode phases between all pairs of component codes are also defined. Still further, a portion of variables of a search process to reduce a number of variables searched by the search process is defined. Even further, deltas and weight variations for standard differences in a Jacobian matrix for use in the search process are defined. Penalty factors to evaluate an objective function of the search process are also defined. The search process is performed.
