| 20100262895 | Turbo-Coding DOCSIS Information for Satellite Communications - Methods and systems for modifying DOCSIS-based transmission paths for communication in higher frequency and/or wireless environments, such as wireless terrestrial communication systems and satellite communication systems. An inner turbo-code is combined with a DOCSIS based Reed-Solomon (“RS”) forward error correction (“FEC”) coding scheme, to produce a concatenated turbo-RS code (other FEC codes can be utilized). In phase and quadrature phase (“I-Q”) processing is utilized to enable relatively low cost up-converter implementations. The I-Q processing is preferably performed at baseband, essentially pre-compensating for analog variations in the transmit path. Power amplifier on/off control capable of controlling on/off RF power control of remote transmitters is modulated on a transmit cable to reduce the need for a separate cable. | 10-14-2010 |

| 20080225937 | METHOD AND SYSTEM OF PROVIDING A HIGH SPEED TOMLINSON-HARASHIMA PRECODER - Herein described are at least a method and a system for implementing a high speed Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder. The method comprises using an L-tap transpose configuration of a Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder and processing a first discrete time sampled sequence using said L coefficients and L state variables by clocking the L-tap Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder using a clock signal wherein the clock signal has a clock rate equal to one half the symbol rate of the discrete time sampled sequence. In a representative embodiment, an L-tap Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder comprises a single integrated circuit chip, wherein the integrated circuit chip comprises at least one circuitry for processing a discrete time sampled sequence using L coefficients and L state variables by way of clocking the discrete time sampled sequence using a clock signal having a clock rate that is one half the symbol rate of the discrete time sampled sequence. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20100074167 | Downstream Time Domain Based Adaptive Modulation for DOCSIS Based Applications - In a DOCSIS based satellite gateway data is transmitted over a single downstream channel, at different throughput rates. Data destined for each subscriber/receiver is assigned a throughput rate depending upon the downstream signal quality of that subscriber/receiver. To accomplish this, the downstream DOCSIS MAC data is parsed to extract DOCSIS packets. The DOCSIS packets are then loaded into packet queues based on an identifier within such packets such as the MAC destination address or SID. Each of the queues represents a bandwidth efficiency or throughput rate that can be currently tolerated by specific subscribers based on the current signal quality being experienced at the subscriber location. A PHY-MAP describing the downstream data structure to be transmitted and inserted into the downstream data. Data is extracted from the packet queues in queue blocks as defined by the PHY-MAP. The queue blocks are modulated with transmission parameters appropriate for each queue block and transmitted to the DOCSIS based satellite modems. The satellite modems extract the PHY-MAP from the downstream data and use the information contained in it to demodulate and decode the queue for which they have sufficient downstream signal quality. Satellite modems measure and transmit downstream signal quality to the satellite gateway to be used to assigned traffic to the appropriate queues. | 03-25-2010 |

| 20100198974 | Modified Range Requests Enabling Bandwidth Requests and State of Health Reporting - A modified ranging request in a broadband communications system. The modified ranging request includes a header, a management message header attached to the header, a management message payload attached to the management message header, and a CRC attached to the management message payload. The management message header enables bandwidth requests to be made by subscriber equipment without contention. The management message header also includes state of health information on the status of a downstream transmission for enabling a central location to determine how to assign subscribers to queues in an adaptive modulation scheme. | 08-05-2010 |
