Exploiting the substantive reciprocity of internode channel responses through dynamic, adaptive modification of receive and transmit weights, enables locally enabled global optimization of a multipoint, wireless electromagnetic communications network of communication nodes. Each diversity-channel-capable node uses computationally efficient exploitation of pilot tone data and diversity-adaptive signal processing of the weightings and the signal to further convey optimization and channel information which promote local and thereby network-global efficiency. The preferred embodiment performs complex digital signal manipulation that includes a linear combining and linear distribution of the transmit and receive weights, the generation of piloting signals containing origination and destination node information, as well as interference-avoiding pseudorandom delay timing, and both symbol and multitione encoding, to gain the benefit of substantive orthogonality at the physical level without requiring actual substantive orthogonality at the physical level.

This is a method of separating simultaneous sources that uses an inversion-type approach. Each source will preferably activated at a random time with respect to the others. These random delays tend to make the interference between sources incoherent while the reflections create coherent events within a series of shots. The shot separation is performed via a numerical inversion process that utilizes the sweeps for each shot, the start times of each shot, and the coherence of reflection events between nearby shots. This method will allow seismic surveys to be acquired faster and cheaper.

An audience response system comprising a base unit and a plurality of remote units communicating using wireless communication operating on a frequency pair. When a response key on a remote unit is activated, the remote unit transmits a voting signal packet to the base unit. The base unit registers the vote and transmits an acknowledgment signal to the remote unit. When the remote unit receives an acknowledgment signal, the remote unit certifies to the operator that the vote was received. If an acknowledgment signal is not received, the remote unit will attempt at least one retransmission after a random delay before alerting the operator that the vote attempt has failed.

A design tool inserts randomized delays into synchronizers for signals crossing from one clock domain to another. Rather than having a wide range of random delays to select from, each synchronizer's randomized delay is selected from only two possibilities. An added delay of either zero or one clock period of the new domain's clock is added as the randomized delay. The randomized delay causes the re-synchronized domain-crossing signal to become available either in the expected cycle or in the cycle following the expected cycle. Logic hazards caused by the domain-crossing signal can be detected and the possible results simulated. The synchronizer can be a series of two flip-flops, with the random delay added to the first flip-flop. Randomized delays of either one or none added periods of the clock can also be added to multi-cycle signals within one clock domain that have two or more clock cycles to propagate.

A distributed system in which time-dependent credentials are supplied by controllers that operate according to different local times. Errors that might arise from the controllers generating inconsistent credentials because of time skew are avoided by identifying credentials generated during transition intervals in which different ones of the controllers may generate different credentials at the same absolute time.

Each controller may periodically renew its credentials based on self-scheduled renewals or based on requests from other devices, such that renewal times are offset by random delays to avoid excessive network traffic. Controllers may determine which credential is valid for any given time, based on a cryptographically secure key associated with that time and information identifying the entity that is associated with that credential.
