摘要:
An adaptive DMT modem determines, as part of a startup sequence, subscriber loop conditions. One or more loop condition adaptation operations are then performed to reduce the complexity of the filters employed in the modem, to reduce the power dissipated in the modem, to optimize performance of the modem or to reduce the likelihood of EMI being radiated into the premises of a subscriber.
摘要:
A method for establishing communication in an ADSL subscriber loop, the method comprising the steps of determining that showtime cannot be entered during initialization of communication between the modems; requesting entry into a diagnostic mode by one of the modems upon the determining; diagnosing line conditions as being unable to support communication at a predetermined standard; and establishing communication at a standard lower than the predetermined standard.
摘要:
Methods for reducing power required for transmitting a signal from a first transceiver to a second transceiver are described. The methods comprise the steps of estimating an excess amount of power used by the first transceiver for transmitting the signal, reducing the first transceiver's power use by the excess amount of power to a reduced power level, and transmitting the signal from the first transceiver using the reduced power level. The reduced power level achieves a transmission rate of the signal within a predefined tolerance of its preferable rate.
摘要:
Method of reducing transmission power across a loop in a discrete multitone communication system. A first signal to noise ratio (SNR) is estimated for a signal transmitted across the loop. A second SNR is estimated for a signal across the loop, the second SNR signal being estimated exclusive of a predetermined portion of the first SNR. A power cutback scaling factor is determined in accordance with the first SNR, the second SNR, and a predefined maximum SNR degradation amount. The transmission power is scaled in accordance with said scaling factor for reducing said transmission power. In such a manner, fine gains are computed such that the transmit power is reduced without significantly affecting the achieved data rate.

摘要:
Apparatus and method for generating parameters used in coding data in a data transmission system. The method determines a number of possible coding parameters to satisfy a target coding gain and selects the best set of parameters that balance the code word length and the error rate. In this manner, a minimum coding gain may be used, which minimizes cross-talk on a transmission link.

A circuit and method is provided for reducing the effect of having potentially different sizes for an Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) at a transmitter and a Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) at a receiver in a telecommunications system without requiring a change in the DFT's size. The method includes following steps. The first step includes determining whether the IDFT size is greater than, equal to, or less than the DFT size. The second step includes selecting a target impulse response length from a predefined set of impulse response lengths in accordance with a result the previous step. The third step includes training an equalizer at the receiver to the target impulse response length. The circuit comprises hardware and software for implementing the method.

摘要:
Method and apparatus for improving data transmission in a digital subscriber line (DSL) system. The transmitter determines whether a spectrum of an inverse Fourier transform (IFT) is periodic with respect to a clock of a predetermined standard-size IFT and communicates this information to the receiver. Based on this information, the receiver adapts the FT if desired. In effect, the receiver adapts its signal processing algorithms to process the received signal in accordance with the transmitter's IFT size. In this manner, transmission performance is improved.
