20090041203DEVICE AND ASSOCIATED METHOD FOR MEASURING CROSSTALK - The present invention relates to a device (02-12-2009
20090060013OPTIMIZING PRECODER SETTINGS USING AVERAGE SINR REPORTS FOR GROUPS OF TONES - Techniques are disclosed for compensating for crosstalk using adaptation of data signals transmitted over respective channels of a communication network. In one example, a method comprises the following steps. Data is transmitted to a communication network device via a communication line during a sequence of periods. For each period of the sequence of periods, a separate value of a measure of crosstalk that was measured at the communication network device is received, each value being an average of measurements at the device of measures of crosstalk for a plurality of communication network signal subcarriers. For each individual signal subcarrier of the plurality, a matrix is updated based on the received values, the matrix being configured to precode data transmissions to the communication network device over the individual signal subcarrier. The communication network may be a DSL system, the signal subcarriers may be DSL tones, and the measure of crosstalk may be a SINR value.03-05-2009
20090060067Determining channel matrices by correlated transmissions to different channels - A method involves performing a plurality of acts. The acts include transmitting a first signal stream to a first channel of a multi-channel communications medium while transmitting a second signal stream to a different second channel of the medium. The second signal stream is substantially temporally correlated to the first signal stream. The method includes receiving an SINR measured at a receiver configured to receive signals from the first channel. The SINR is measured while the receiver received the first signal stream. The method includes determining a channel matrix element between the first and second channels or a ratio of said channel matrix element to a diagonal element of the channel matrix. The act of determining is based on the received SINR.03-05-2009
20090073868Device and associated method for measuring crosstalk - The present invention relates to a crosstalk estimation device for estimating crosstalk between disturber communication lines and victim communication lines. The crosstalk estimation device is able to change the power spectral density PSD on the victim communication lines and/or the disturber communication lines. The crosstalk estimation device further receives measured changes in operational parameters on the victim communication lines and/or disturber communication lines in order to estimate the crosstalk induced in the victim communication lines and/or disturber communication lines.03-19-2009
20090092036Method and apparatus for estimating crosstalk - The present invention relates to a method for estimating a first parameter (|H04-09-2009
20090304056Signal suspension and resumption in DSL systems - A method includes maintaining temporally parallel DSL data communication sessions with DSL modems of a group via a set of lines. The method includes, in response to substantially stopping to receive DSL communications from one of the DSL modems via one of the lines, transmitting a substantially reduced average power to the one of the lines and monitoring the one of the lines to determine whether DSL communications have restarted being received from the one of the DSL modems. The method also includes resuming the maintaining of the temporally parallel DSL communication sessions in response to the monitoring determining that DSL communications have restarted being received from the one of the DSL modems.12-10-2009
20100278222Validated signal resumption in DSL systems - An apparatus includes a DSL transceiver configured to transit to a DSL wait state in which a power transmitted from the DSL transceiver to a local-end line is substantially reduced in response to an interruption or substantial stop at the DSL transceiver of reception of DSL communications from the local-end line. The DSL transceiver is configured to transmit to the local-end line a DSL acknowledge signal in response to receiving from the local-end line a DSL wait signal. The DSL transceiver is configured to resume to transmit DSL communications to the local-end line at a power substantially higher than the power transmitted thereto in the DSL wait state in response either to receiving from the local-end line DSL transmissions at a substantially higher power than received there from in the DSL wait state or to receiving from the local-end line a second DSL acknowledge signal.11-04-2010
20110261674Method And Apparatus For Configuring A Multi-Carrier Data Communication Path - The present invention relates to a method for configuring communication parameters for communication through a first multi-carrier data communication path (DPx) established over a first subscriber line (Lx), and comprising the steps of: 10-27-2011
