A method for waveform bandwidth compression (WBC) and a system configured to perform the method, which may include the steps of: processing information to produce an input sequence of real-valued amplitude signals; fitting a polynomial to the input sequence covering at least one transmission time interval; converting the polynomial to a transmission signal comprising a sum of sinusoids with continuously time-varying amplitudes; transmitting the transmission signal; and receiving the transmission signal as a time-amplitude sequence. This method may significantly improve the spectral efficiency of existing transmission systems, while at the same time requiring only minimal modification to traditional radio architecture design.
