    摘要: A method for enabling a round-trip packet loss measurement between two nodes of a packet-switched communication network exchanging packets comprising a packet loss field settable to an idle value or one or more measurement values. The first node transmits to the second node first packets having the packet loss field set to a measurement value. Upon reception of each first packet, the second node transmits back to the first node a respective second packet having the packet loss field set to a measurement value. Upon reception of each second packet, the first node transmits back to the second node a respective third packet having the packet loss field set to a measurement value. A measurement point placed between the two nodes may count the number of first packets and the number of third packets and use them to provide a round-trip packet loss measurement.

    摘要: A receiver adapted to receive a modulated signal including useful and interfering signals and to detect information bits carried thereon. The modulated signal comprises signal components each one associated with a respective modulation subcarrier and including respective useful and interfering signal components. The receiver may include a first estimation unit providing a respective first useful signal component estimate indicative of the useful signal component for each signal component; a second estimation unit providing a respective second useful signal component estimate indicative of the useful signal component for each signal component; a channel estimation unit estimating, for each signal component, a first channel frequency response associated with the respective useful signal component and a second channel frequency response associated with the respective interfering signal component; and a control unit determining, for each signal component, an interference level experienced by that signal component according to respective first and second channel frequency responses.
