Or Chirp:

Or this Network World article (particularly the last portion on bitcoin):
http://www.networkworld.com/article/2956450/smartphones/sending-data-over-sound-revisited.html
and
http://www.networkworld.com/article/2689597/opensource-subnet/how-a-tv-network-is-being-used-to-move-financial-transactions.html

Instead of re-inventing the wheel, perhaps take a look at them. Or at
least to see their design choices and rationale.

Cheers!
