Fuzzy logic for processing transmission meta data

1. A system, comprising:

a transmitter configured to transmit an encoded data signal by skywave propagation, wherein the encoded data signal includes triggering data;

a receiver configured to receive the encoded data signal transmitted by the transmitter and to decode the received encoded data signal to produce a decoded data signal;

metadata corresponding to the encoded data signal, wherein the metadata is collected at the receiver;

a service provider, wherein the service provider operates the transmission of the data signal between the transmitter and the receiver;

a client, wherein the client is a financial instrument trader, wherein the client provides the service provider with the data signal to be transmitted between the transmitter and the receiver;

a connection operatively connecting the receiver to the client;

wherein the service provider provides both the data signal decoded at the receiver and the metadata to the client over the connection;

wherein the service provider and the client are different entities;

a wired data transmission path between the transmitter and the receiver, wherein the wired data transmission path is a fiber optic cable;

wherein the transmitter is configured to transmit command data over the wired data transmission path;

a copy encoded data signal is transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver by wired data transmission path; and

wherein the service provide is responsible for transmitting the copy of the encoded data signal over the wired data transmission path.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the service provider indicates whether the decoded data signal is allowed or rejected.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the metadata includes information concerning environmental conditions during transmission of the encoded data signal.

4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the environmental conditions include ionospheric conditions.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the client uses the decoded data signal and the metadata to determine whether the decoded data signal is accurately decoded.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the metadata includes confidence of the service provider as to accuracy of the decoded data signal.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the metadata includes method used by the service provider to decode the received encoded data signal.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the metadata includes carrier frequency of the encoded data signal.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein:

the metadata includes confidence of the service provider as to accuracy of the decoded data signal; and

the meta data includes the number of hops the data signal travels via the skywave propagation.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the command data includes preset trading instructions or conditions for executing a trade.

11. A method, comprising:

transmitting an encoded data signal from a transmitter to a receiver over a first communication path, wherein the encoded data signal includes triggering data, wherein the first communication path includes skywave propagation, wherein a service provider transmits the encoded data signal for a client, wherein the service provider and the client are different entities;

wherein the client is a financial instrument trader;

transmitting command data via a second communication path, wherein the second communication path include a fiber optic cable;

decoding the transmitted data signal after the data signal has been received at the receiver;

determining whether to accept or reject the decoded data signal, wherein the service provider determines to accept or reject the decoded signal based on accuracy of the signal;

transmitting the decoded data signal to the client;

transmitting metadata from the encoded data signal to the client, wherein the metadata includes confidence of the service provider as to accuracy of the decoded data signal;

providing an indication whether the decoded data signal is accepted or rejected during the transmitting the decoded data signal to the client;

transmitting a copy of the encoded data signal from the transmitter to the receiver via the second communication path that includes the fiber optic cable;

using the metadata as an input to determine whether the decoded data signal was accurately decoded;

determining whether the decoded data signal was accurately decoded based on the metadata d the copy of the encoded data signal; and

executing a financial trade that is counter to the indication for the decoded data signal based on this metadata.

12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

using the metadata as an input to determine whether the decoded data signal was accurately decoded.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the metadata includes information concerning environmental conditions during transmission of the encoded data signal.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the environmental conditions include ionospheric conditions.

15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the metadata includes confidence of the service provider as to accuracy of the decoded data signal.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the metadata includes method used by the service provider to decode the received encoded data signal.

17. The method of claim 11 , wherein the metadata includes carrier frequency of the encoded data signal.

18. The method of claim 11 , wherein the command data includes preset trading instructions or conditions for executing a trade.
