    • In one embodiment a technique is disclosed for facilitating communication between nodes and a head end of an access network including a head end, at least one shared access upstream channel and at least one downstream channel. A first insertion rate estimate is determined. In at least one embodiment, the first insertion rate estimate may relate to an estimated number of nodes attempting to sign-on to the access network during one or more time interval(s). In at least one embodiment, a frequency of occurrence of initial maintenance opportunities available to a first plurality of network nodes may be dynamically adjusted, for example, using data relating to the first insertion rate estimate. According to one embodiment where the access network corresponds to a cable network, the head end of the cable network may be operable to sign on at least 40,000 cable modems within a time interval of not more than 300 seconds.

    • A method for reducing Internet bandwidth used for data transfer between an originating modem and an answering modem over a VoIP connection is provided. Idle data received from the originating modem is detected by an Internet node. The Internet node does not forward the detected received idle data over the VoIP connection. To keep the modem connection between the originating modem and the answering modem alive, the Internet node regenerates idle data and transmits the regenerated idle data to the answering modem upon detecting no data received for forwarding to the answering modem.
    • 提供了一种通过VoIP连接减少用于始发调制解调器和应答调制解调器之间的数据传输的因特网带宽的方法。 由起始调制解调器接收的空闲数据由互联网节点检测。 因特网节点不通过VoIP连接转发检测到的接收到的空闲数据。 为了保持始发调制解调器和应答调制解调器之间的调制解调器连接,互联网节点重新生成空闲数据,并且在检测到没有收到的数据转发到应答调制解调器时,将再生的空闲数据发送到应答调制解调器。

    • In one embodiment, a first ranging timing description describing at least a duration of time during which a subject cable modem (CM) may burst and a duration of time during which the subject CM and other CMs in a multiple access network are not permitted to burst is translated into a second ranging timing description describing a duration during which a burst from the subject CM is expected to be received by a cable modem termination system (CMTS). The CMTS is conditioned to receive a burst from the subject CM during the duration of time described by the second ranging timing description. A timing offset is determined from at least an actual time a burst from the subject CM is received by the CMTS and the duration of time during which the subject CM and other CMs in the multiple access network are not permitted to burst to produce a determined timing offset. The determined timing offset is reported to compensate for delay in the multiple access network and the subject CM.

    • Disclosed are apparatus and methods for managing upstream channels on a per cable modem basis. In certain embodiments, one or more thresholds are defined for each of a plurality of upstream logical channels of a headend system for receiving data from a plurality of cable modems (or other types of access nodes). Each defined threshold corresponds to a measurable parameter of the corresponding upstream logical channel. One or more metrics are collected for each cable modem of each upstream logical channel. It is determined whether to downgrade a selected cable modem to a selected one of the logical channels that has a lower performance level than the selected cable modem's current logical channel. Such downgrade determination is based on whether the selected cable modem's collected one or more metrics have failed a condition of the one or more defined thresholds and whether a percentage of a total of the cable modems of such current logical channel that have failed a condition for the one or more defined thresholds is less than a predefined percentage level. The selected cable modem is then caused to move from the current logical channel to the selected logical channel when the percentage of the total cable modems that have failed is below a predefined level if such selected logical channel is available. Otherwise, the current logical channel's modulation profile may be altered when the percentage of the total cable modems that have failed is above (or equal to) the predefined level.
