Abstract:
In a data communication system, a transmitter of a modem, for example, uses a single scrambler to operate in a data communication mode and in a non-data mode. During the data communication mode the scrambler is used to scramble data for communication by the transmitter. During the non-data mode, the scrambler is used to generate a non-data mode signal for communication by the scrambler. The modem may be an ADSL modem, for example, in which case the data communication mode is SHOWTIME while the non-data mode may be Q-mode.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system and method for selecting one of plurality of PRBS generators for use with a modem. The modem includes a measuring device adapted to measure an operating environment of the modem; and a storage device adapted to store a list of PRBS generator definitions. The modem selects one of a plurality of PRBS generators based on the measurement of the operating environment.
Abstract:
A 4800 bit-per-second full duplex modem is described which utilizes the full bandwidth of ordinarily available dial-up telephone circuits for transmission of data in both directions in different pass-band portions thereof. The two pass-bands overlap in about the middle of the telephone band in order to fully utilize that bandwidth for high speed data transmission. The overlap is less than that which will cause a greater error rate than desired from remote echos of transmitted data. Local echos, which are much stronger, resulting from the overlap bandwidth portion are cancelled by an echo cancelling technique. Local echo cancelling is accomplished at the baud rate, generated in each modem, for substraction from a received signal; a cancellation signal is generated from a time varying system that depends upon the modulating and demodulating carrier signals.
