Splitterless multicarrier modem

Номер: US20120002709A1
Автор: David M. Krinsky, John A. Greszczuk, Marcos Tzannes, Michael A. Tzannes, Richard W. Gross
Принадлежит: Daphimo Co BV LLC

A modem for use in Digital Subscriber Line communications transmits and receives data over the local subscriber loop in common with voice information over the loop, while avoiding the need for voice/data splitters. The modem responds to disruptions associated with “disturbance events” such as on-hook to off-hook transitions and the like by rapidly switching between pre-stored channel parameter control sets defining communications over the loop under varying conditions. In addition to changing parameter control sets responsive to a disturbance event, the modem may also change transmission power levels and other system parameters such as frequency domain equalizer characteristics. Further, provisions are made for reduced bandwidth communications under selected conditions.

A method of diagnosing a transmission loop in an Internet protocol television (IPTV) network includes configuring the loop as an open loop and performing a single-ended loop test (SELT), configuring the loop as a terminated-loop and performing another SELT, subtracting a trace of the first SELT from a trace of the second SELT, and determining the length of the loop from the result. A service assurance system in an IPTV network includes a test module and a DSLAM coupled to a residential gateway by a transmission loop. The test module operates to determine that a fault condition on the IPTV network is caused by a fault in the loop, direct the DSLAM to perform an open loop SELT and a terminated-loop SELT on the loop, receive the results of the SELTs, and determine a location of a tap on the loop based upon the results.

A method of regulating traffic flow to customer premises devices (CPDs) reachable via outside plant units (OPUs). The method comprises receiving first packets in a first traffic category via a first interface, the first packets being destined for respective CPDs; receiving second packets in a second traffic category via a second interface, the second packets being destined for respective CPDs; determining a destination OPU for each of the first and second packets. For each particular OPU that is the destination OPU for one or more packets, the packets are buffered and transmitted via an OPU interface for the particular OPU. The destination OPU for a particular packet is determined by identifying the OPU via which the CPD for which the particular packet is destined is reachable. Packet flow via the OPU interface is regulated by prioritizing transmission of first packets over transmission of second packets.

A social intelligence, tracking and monitoring system includes a data processor, a Wi-Fi module to transmit and receive information over the internet, a camera, and a proximity detector for sensing the presence of a visitor, the proximity detector in communication with the data processor to actuate the camera to take a photographic image of the visitor. Photographic images of persons of interest are downloaded from a social networking site. The facial features in the downloaded photographic images are compared to the facial features in the photographic image taken by the camera to determine if the visitor is recognized. Upon recognition of the visitor by the system, a prerecorded message is played to the recognized visitor. Another prerecorded message is played inviting the visitor to leave a message. An infrared illuminator illuminates the visitor when the data processor determines that the ambient lighting is insufficient.

SMART DYNAMIC LINE MANAGEMENT

Номер: US20170005750A1
Автор: BULL Philip M, GEDGE Richard
Принадлежит:

The invention describes a method of performing re-synchronisations on a DSL line to optimise the synchronisation rate of the line. The line is monitored over a period of time, and a stable SNR margin is determined, below which the line is observed to lose synchronisation. Historical synchronisation rates and associated SNR margins for the line are recorded, and the highest stable synchronisation rate is determined as the historical synchronisation rate that does not have any associated SNR margins below the stable SNR margin. The method attempts to optimise the synchronisation rate of the line towards this highest stable synchronisation rate. To do this, the current target SNR margin imposed by DLM is identified, for example, by interrogating the DLM system or by noting the SNR margin on the line immediately after the most recent synchronisations. Assuming the current synchronisation rate on the line is less than the highest stable rate, then the synchronisation rate is optimised by triggering a synchronisation of the line when the SNR margin is greater than the target SNR margin plus an additional predetermined amount. The result should be an increase in the synchronisation rate, and can be repeated until the synchronisation rate reaches the highest stable synchronisation rate. 1. A method of managing a digital subscriber line in a network , comprising:a) determining a minimum SNR margin, wherein the minimum SNR margin is the SNR margin of the digital subscriber line below which the digital subscriber line loses synchronisation;b) monitoring the synchronisation rate and respective SNR margin following each of a plurality of synchronisations on the digital subscriber line, and estimating an optimum synchronisation rate as the synchronisation rate where all the respective SNR margin or margins are greater than the minimum SNR margin; i. initiating synchronisation of the digital subscriber line when both the SNR margin is a predetermined amount over a target SNR ...
