I had a quick look at a few of them.
Some guy seems to be trying to patent something he calls Quadrature
Frequency Modulation. I see this as similar to the many perpetual motion
machines that get patented.
If it works at all I can't see it offering anything different from QPSK (aka
QAM4) in performance or bandwidth requirements.
