摘要： The invention provides a method and apparatus for end-users to allocate a communication medium locally without requiring a central arbitration device while guaranteeing access to the end-users. The end-users bid for control of an upstream data channel by concurrently transmitting auction data and address data on a first upstream signaling channel and a second upstream signaling channel. An end-user gains control of the upstream data channel when data received from the first and second downstream signaling channels match the auction and address bits. When it is determined that the end-user lost the bid, the end-user backs off from the first and second upstream signaling channels and refrains from bidding until the first and second upstream signaling channels become quiet.

摘要： An arrangement avoids contention on a communication medium among devices including at least a transmitter and a receiver. The arrangement involves a first portion configured to instruct a receiver to indicate that the communication medium is busy for a time period substantially longer than an actual frame transmission period being sent from the transmitter to the receiver, and a second portion configured to prohibit the receiver from transmitting on the communication medium during the time period.

摘要： A modem that operates selectively in the voice-band frequency band and at higher frequency bands is provided. This modem supports multiple line codes, like DMT and CAP.The modem uses a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), so that different existing ADSL line codes, such as Discrete MultiTone (DMT) and Carrierless AM/PM (CAP), can be implemented on the same hardware platform. The modem negotiates in real-time, for a desired line transmission rate to accommodate line condition and service-cost requirement.The line code and rate negotiation process may be implemented at the beginning of each communication session through the exchange of tones between the modems. A four-step MDSL modem initialization process is provided for line code and rate compatibility.

摘要： A modem that operates selectively in the voice-band frequency band and higher frequency bands is provided. This modem supports multiple line codes, like DMT and CAP. The modem uses a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), so that different existing ADSL line codes, such as Discrete MultiTone (DMT) and Carrierless AM/PM (CAP), can be implemented on the same hardware platform. The modem employs a method for interfacing the modem hardware with a host operating system. The method calls a defined set of host interface functions for command/control, calls a defined set of host interface functions for link correction management, calls a defined set of host interface functions for data sending/receiving, calls a defined set of host interface functions for synchronization between voice-band audio and above voice-band audio, and calls a defined set of host interface functions to use the voice-band as control channel and above voice-band as a data channel.

摘要： A Wavelength-Division-Multiplexed (WDM) network provides delivery of both switched services and broadcast analog video over optical facilities through an intermediate optical apparatus (e.g., Passive Optical Network (PON)) splitter to a plurality of remote optical apparatuses (e.g., optical-network units (ONUs)). The broadcast signal is provided to only a selected ONU, together with the switched service signal for that selected ONU, the selected ONU then distributes the broadcast signal to other ONUs over a separate distribution facility interconnecting the ONUs.

摘要： A communication network (e.g., a coax network or an optical fiber network) comprises a signal distribution network (e.g., fiber node FN) for transmitting communication signals downstream over a first communication path to a plurality of end user apparatuses connected thereto. At least one end user apparatus is arranged for sending the return signals downstream over at least part of the first communication path to a converter apparatus which collects the return signals and converts them to an upstream signal for transmission over a second separate communication path to the distribution unit.

摘要： Dynamically reducing power consumption by a processor in a computer system by determining a maximum number of times (token count) that the processor can incur a start-up delay after being placed into a low-power mode during a token period of time when executing a task for a token period of time. The processor may be placed into the low-power mode while executing the task in response to an idle indicator only if a current value of the token count assigned to the task is greater than zero. The current value of the token count is decremented each time the processor incurs a start-up delay in response to being awakened from the low-power mode. The current token count is reset to match the assigned token count at the end of each token period. Furthermore, wakeup may be anticipated to allow the processor to be awakened preemptively.
