摘要： A first device of a multimedia over coax alliance (MoCA) network may grant a second device of the MoCA network permission to enter a power-saving state. While the second device is in the power-saving mode, the first device may grant bandwidth to the second device during one or more predetermined timeslots. The bandwidth may be granted without a corresponding reservation request from the second device. While the second device is in the power-saving state, it may track time utilizing a clock that is synchronized to the system time of the MoCA network, and transmit during one or more of the predetermined timeslots without first transmitting a corresponding reservation request. The second device may utilize a first modulation profile when not operating in the power-saving state, and utilize a second modulation profile when operating in the power-saving state.

摘要： Methods and systems for cross-protocol time synchronization may comprise, for example in a premises-based network, receiving a signal that conforms to a first communications protocol (e.g., a general-purpose communications protocol), extracting a global time of day (GTOD) clock from the received signal; and synchronizing communication on the premises-based network in accordance with a second communication protocol, based at least in part on the extracted GTOD clock. The first communications protocol may comprise data over cable service interface specification (DOCSIS) or any protocol that provides a GTOD. The second communication protocol may comprise a multimedia over cable alliance (MoCA) standard, an IEEE 802.11x standard, or any non-public wireless network protocol. The GTOD clock may comprise a GPS clock, a GLONASS clock, and/or a Galileo clock. One or more of the networked devices may comprise a network controller, where the network controller comprises wireless network and wired network capability.

摘要： A network device (e.g., a cable modem) may support a normal mode of operation and a sleep mode of operation. While in the normal mode, a PHY of the network device may process a received signal to recover MPEG-TS packets, and convey the MPEG-TS packets to other components of the network device for further processing. While in the sleep mode, the PHY may process received MPEG-TS packets having a particular packet identifier and drop received MPEG-TS packets not having the particular packet identifier. The PHY may control transitions between the normal mode and the sleep mode in response to received signals having particular physical layer characteristics. The PHY may demodulate a received signal to recover an MPEG-TS packet; descramble portions of the MPEG-TS packet; inspect portions of the MPEG-TS packet; and control a mode of operation of the network device based on the contents of the MPEG transport stream.

摘要： Methods and systems for interference avoidance in a multi-protocol communication system may comprise receiving signals in a first communications protocol (FCP) in a first frequency range (FFR), configuring channel usage in a second communications protocol (SCP) in a second frequency range (SFR) based on the received signals to control interference from the SFR to the FFR. Signals may be communicated over coaxial cables based on the configuration of channel usage in the SCP in the SFR based on the received signals, such that aliased signals do not excessively degrade performance of the FCP. The FFR may comprise a cable or satellite television frequency range. The FCP may comprise data over cable service interface standard (DOCSIS). The SCP may comprise multimedia over coaxial alliance (MoCA) standard. The configuring channel usage in the SCP may comprise varying bit loading, power levels, or degree of modulation of signals transmitted over the SCP.

摘要： Methods and systems for providing reduced bandwidth acquisition latency may comprise communicating a reservation request for bandwidth allocation for devices operating under a wired network protocol, where the reservation request may be sent by wired network devices via a wireless network protocol over a wireless network. Bandwidth may be allocated in the wired network for the requesting devices by a network controller. Data may be communicated with the requesting devices via the wired network. The wired network communication protocol may comprise a multimedia over cable alliance (MoCA) standard. The wireless protocol may comprise an IEEE 802.11x standard, a Bluetooth standard, and/or any non-public network protocol. The communication of the reservation request via the wireless protocol may decrease a latency of the wired network. A medium access plan (MAP) may be generated by the network controller based on the reservation request and may comprise a bandwidth allocation for the requesting devices.

摘要： A network device may be operable to receive an indication from a cable modem termination system (CMTS) that media access control (MAC) management messages will be transmitted by the CMTS at fixed intervals. Subsequent to receiving the indication, the network device may be operable to power down one or more components of the network device and set a sleep timer to a value equal to an integer multiple of the fixed interval minus a transition period. The network device may power up the one or more components of the network device upon expiration of the sleep timer. The network device may power up the one or more components of the network device upon an amount of traffic in a buffer of the network device reaching a threshold.
