    摘要: Techniques are disclosed for controlling data transmission in multi-stream digital systems. The techniques disclosed allow an input stream to a conditional access system to be throttled when a FIFO begins to fill up. Each data stream may have its own FIFO, which sends data to a MUX and exports its status to a backpressure rate control module. Multiple seconds worth of data may be stored in a BPRC buffer ahead of the backpressure rate control module prior to being transmitted to a MUX FIFO buffer. The backpressure rate control module may use the cached data to fill available spaces within a MUX FIFO buffer. The determination to forward a data packet may be based on the individual MUX FIFO buffer levels, the sum of all the MUX FIFO buffer levels, and/or one or more configurable threshold values. In some embodiments, individual thresholds may be assigned to each FIFO buffer.

    摘要: Various systems and methods for queue management in computer memory are described herein. A system for implementing a zero thrash cache queue manager includes a processor subsystem to: receive a memory access request for a queue; write data to a queue tail cache line in a cache when the memory access request is to add data to the queue, the queue tail cache line protected from being evicted from the cache; and read data from a current queue head cache line in the cache when the memory access request is to remove data from the queue, the current queue head cache line protected from being evicted from the cache.

    摘要: A novel apparatus for and method of upstream power control for multiple transmit channels. The invention is particularly useful in environments that include two level amplification, wherein the first level corresponds to each channel separately and the second level corresponds to the joint sum of all the channels. When working with two-level amplification, changing the joint sum amplification is permitted during specific time periods known as “CMTS re-configuration time” in the DOCSIS specification. The mechanism functions to maintain an optimal transmit power operating point of the PGA using self-configuration without any need to receive permission from an exterior control entity such as the cable head-end thus bypassing the prior art requirement of waiting for a global reconfiguration time from the CMTS (i.e. when the specification assures that there is sufficient time to change the PGA gain). This can be achieved with high confidence if there is sufficient quiet time (which is calculated) to perform the self-configuration of the PGA within a specific period of time.
