Abstract: Orthogonal pulse polarity modulation involves wireless communication in which the polarity of modulating pulses are set responsive to positive and negative character values of a corresponding code sequence. In a described implementation, data is converted to chip waveforms, spectrum lines are removed, and pulses are appropriately shaped. For example, a data bit stream may be converted into chip waveforms using a bit stream-to-symbol segmenter, a symbol-to-code sequence mapper, and a code sequence-to-chip waveform transformer. The polarities of respective individual chips in a given chip waveform match the signs of respective individual characters in a corresponding code sequence.

Such methods may include dividing a time period into a plurality of time slots, determining an amount of data received by the network interface device during a first of the time slots, and determining whether the amount of data received exceeds a predefined threshold. If the amount of data received exceeds the predefined threshold, then the network interface device is caused to be awake during a subsequent time slot. The network interface device is caused to go to sleep during the subsequent time slot unless the amount of data received exceeds the predefined threshold. A number of the time slots may be defined as wakeup time slots during which the network interface device is awake. The number of time slots during the time period in which one or more packets were received by the network interface device may be compared to the number of wakeup time slots during the time period.
