Abstract: A system for encoding and decoding an audio transmission signal comprises: (a) an encoder with a frequency-varying means to vary the carrier frequency of the audio signal according to an encryption algorithm; (b) a transmitter; (c) a receiver; and (d) a decoder with a multi-plexing filter for separating segments of the audio signal with identical carrier frequencies, and a demodulator corresponding to each carrier signal frequency. The separated segments of the audio signal are switched to the corresponding demodulators according to a decryption algorithm.
