I would like to take an incoming signal (digital or analog), invert it, and send it to an antenna. What is a simple high-level approach to this?

Digital signal inversion is the process of flipping the binary values of a digital signal, changing 0s to 1s and vice versa. This is done by inverting the voltage levels of the signal, resulting in a signal that is the opposite of the original.
Analog signal inversion refers to the process of reversing the polarity of an analog signal, which means that positive values become negative and vice versa. This is typically done by multiplying the signal by -1. Unlike digital signal inversion, analog signal inversion does not involve changing binary values.
The purpose of signal inversion is to manipulate the signal in order to reduce interference and improve signal quality. Inverting a digital signal can help to reduce the effects of noise and distortion, while inverting an analog signal can help to cancel out unwanted signals or adjust the phase of the original signal.
In digital communication, signal inversion is commonly used to improve the reliability and accuracy of transmissions. By inverting the signal at regular intervals, any errors or noise that may have accumulated can be corrected, resulting in a clearer and more accurate signal at the receiving end.
While signal inversion can be beneficial in certain applications, it can also introduce additional complexity and potential for error. In digital communication, for example, both the sender and receiver must be synchronized in order for signal inversion to work effectively. Additionally, signal inversion can also introduce a delay in the transmission, which may not be desirable in time-sensitive applications.
