Abstract:
A communication device (alternatively, device) includes a processor configured to support communications with other communication device(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. In some examples, the device includes a communication interface and a processor, among other possible circuitries, components, elements, etc. to support communications with other communication device(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. Such a communication device includes a processor configured to perform codeword builder functionality to generate information that undergoes error checking and correction (ECC) and/or forward error correction (FEC) coding. The processor intelligently selects packets from buffers to generate information blocks that undergo ECC and/or FEC coding and transmission and to meet certain latency constraints in conjunction with a predetermined period of time (e.g., a programmable threshold). Such a communication device may be implemented in a point-to-multipoint communication system that services multiple other communication devices.

Abstract:
A transmitter for use in a cable modem termination system includes a data processing module that generates a plurality of OFDM symbols from a data packet. A probe symbol generator generates a probe symbol, as one of a plurality of probe symbol types. The probe symbol is selectively inserted within the plurality of OFDM symbols, at a pre-defined probe symbol interval.

Abstract:
A new protocol uses a trigger message to identify one or more symbols transmitted between a first and a second communication device. The first device generates and transmits a trigger message to the second device. This process may be initiated based on the first device receiving a measurement initiation message from another device (e.g., such as the second device or another device within the system). Then, the first device transmits a signal that includes those one or more symbols to the second device. Before or during transmission, the first device generates a first capture of those one or more symbols. After receipt of the transmission from the first device, the second device performs a second capture of those one or more symbols identified within the trigger message. Then, any device having the first and second captures can determine a characterization of the communication pathway between the first and second devices.
