Abstract

A code, comprised of at least one code element, specifies at least one non-temporal characteristic of at least one pulse. A code element can be mapped to a value within a layout, comprising a range of pulse characteristic values, divided into components and sub-components. The code element can be an integer, or a floating-point number, and may be used in conjunction with an absolute or relative offset value. The code element values can be subdivided into parts, that individually, or in combination, specify non-temporal pulse characteristics. The code element can be used to specify a number of characteristics of a pulse, including pulse polarity; pulse amplitude; pulse width; pulse type; and pulse position in time. The type of the pulse indicates whether the pulse is a square wave pulse, sawtooth pulse, Haar wavelet pulse, gaussian monopulse, doublet pulse, triplet pulse, or set of wavelets.
