Sure you have a spectrum. The voltage between ends of an antenna is a scalar, and it _does_ pick up all frequencies, although some more strongly than others; it's up to the rest of the circuitry to filter down to the one you care about. I think CDMA is a great idea here.

Then I'm clearly misunderstanding what you meant by "single value". An attacker doesn't need to block values in the spectrum between 50->100 or 100->200 or... they just need to keep asserting 42, and if they do it quicker than you can sample and read then you'll only get 42.

Yeah, apologies - that was maybe unclear. If you think about something like the electromagnetic field (which is a vector field), you can measure its value at any time at a given point in space. By measuring rapidly (at some frequency S) you are able to observe multiple signals...

... of any frequency below S/2 (by Nyquist). This is a similar idea, except without the requirement of "any point in space"; it's as if when you put up an antenna, you got the same stations, no matter where in the universe you are.

_If_ I'm understanding this right (no guarantees!) then it would need to be accumulative; if I transmitted a 1 & you transmitted a 1 at the same time then the measured value would be a 2, universally. In that scenario I think we'd be able to discern separate signals by sampling.

And if I am misunderstanding (again) then my apologies and don't waste any more time on me :-)

I think the proposition was that the value could be “set”, so superposition principle ala constructive interference wouldn’t come into play. I think in your scenario the individual distributed “keys” would ensure nobody sets colliding values

In my scenario a pair of communicating parties could select a frequency for state transitions and then oversample (say 100x) on reception. I'd expect averages to even out (other tx, noise, griefers), so the received bit could be determined. Add in ECC for safety :-)

Maybe I've spent too much time playing with 80s computers, but I'm now thinking of CMOS logic; transmit at value 5 for a "1" and value 0 for a "0", and any average received value above 2.5 counts as a 1, else it counts as a 0. Heh. Slower transmissions would be more reliable!

Out of curiousity, have you read "Macroscope" by Piers Anthony (originally published 1969 before he turned into a total hack). I first read it when I was a kid and it has a similar idea of universal communications. Including, now I think of it, griefers!

No, cool idea!
