    摘要: Fractional bit rate encoding in a pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) communication environment allows the transmission of fractional bit rates, thus maximizing the use of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) available on a communication channel. The invention allows the transmission of fractional bit rates in a PAM transceiver, thus allowing the encoding and transmission of a fractional number of bits on each PAM transmit symbol. By encoding a non-integer number of bits, a non power-of-two number of PAM levels can be encoded.

    摘要: In a simultaneous voice and data communications system, a voice signal is mapped into an N-dimensional signal space constellation as a vector, and added to a reference signal point, i.e., a data symbol, where the data symbol is selected from a constellation of data symbols every signaling interval as a function of a data signal. The constellation signal space is further divided into a number of shaped regions, where each region is associated with a different one of the data symbols. The shape of each region is selected as a function of the characteristics of the voice, or audio, signal. In particular, each region illustratively has a rectangular shape.

    摘要: A communication system has a trunk extending from a network facility, such as a central office, with a plurality of distribution points positioned along the trunk. Each leg of the trunk defines a shared channel that permits peak data rates much greater than what would be achievable without channel sharing. As an example, the connections of each respective trunk leg may be bonded. Further, the same modulation format and crosstalk vectoring are used for each leg of the trunk. The crosstalk vectoring cancels both far-end crosstalk (FEXT) that couples between connections of a given trunk leg and crossover crosstalk that couples between one trunk leg and another. In addition, logic determines an amount of excess capacity available for each leg of the trunk and controls error correction based on the determined excess capacity.

    摘要: The present disclosure generally pertains to systems and methods for communicating data. In one exemplary embodiment, a system has a high-speed channel, such as an optical fiber, between a network facility, such as a central office (CO), and a first intermediate point between the network facility and a plurality of customer premises (CP). Digital communication links, such as DSL links, are used to carry data between the first intermediate point, such as a feeder distribution interface (FDI), and a second intermediate point, such as the Distribution Point (DP). Non-shared links may then carry the data from the second intermediate point to the CPs. The links between the two intermediate points are bonded to create a high-speed, shared data channel that permits peak data rates much greater than what would be achievable without bonding. In some embodiments, multicast data flows may be prioritized and transmitted across a set of connections to each of the intermediate points. In addition, it is possible to power components at the intermediate points from one or more of the CPs.

    摘要: A digital subscriber line communication system does not require the use of a plain old telephone service (POTS) splitter in the resident's home. Digital signal-processing techniques are utilized to accommodate varying subscriber line conditions coming from POTS telephone equipment. The digital signal-processing techniques eliminate the need for a splitter by reducing susceptibility to distortion resulting from varying subscriber line characteristics. The digital subscriber line modem can utilize quadrature amplitude modulated (QAM) signals and frequency division multiplexing. The digital subscriber line modem includes a control circuit that implements an echo canceler and an analyzer to reduce near-end cross-talk noise. The analyzer performs spectral analysis to preemphasize or to predistort the transmitted signals in accordance with the cross-talk noise.

    摘要: In a simultaneous voice and data communications system, a voice signal is added to a data signal before transmission over the public switched telephone network (PSTN). In particular, in every signaling interval, a signal point is selected for transmission as a function of both the voice signal and the data signal. Since the voice signal is effectively offset by the data signal, compandors normally found in the PSTN are not effective in improving the signal to noise ratio of the transmitted voice and data signal. Therefore, the voice signal is additionally companded in the transmitter before transmission over the PSTN. This additional companding by the transmitter improves the signal to noise ratio of the combined voice and data signal.
