ABSTRACT:
A method of communicating of the present invention includes broadcasting a signal from a transmission point. The power of the signal is limited such that the signal will attenuate within a predetermined distance from the transmission point. The signal is received by a receiver. A communication system includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter is adapted to broadcast a first signal which attenuates within a predetermined distance from the transmitter. The receiver is adapted to receive the first signal. The method and system can be used to imperceptibly transmit voice data.
