20090161744 | METHOD FOR ESTIMATING AND MONITORING TIMING ERRORS IN PACKET DATA NETWORKS - A system and method is provided for estimating the T1 timing error and clock recovery errors by processing timing information from the associated pseudowire packet stream(s) from which the Ti is derived. The timing errors are presented as MTIE measurements which are used to present alarms for a Network Operation Control centre and are used to accurately alarm error conditions where the regenerated or derived T1 signal does not meet MTIE or clock accuracy errors. This alarm is intended to detect conditions of excessive packet jitter, wander or phase transients which may exist in the data network over which the pseudowire stream is transported. In another aspect, the errors are used to control the regeneration of the T1 clock information. | 06-25-2009 |

20120163201 | CABLE MODEM WITH DUAL AUTOMATIC ATTENUATION - Described herein are a number of steps, methods and/or solutions that can be applied to greatly improve attenuation control of RF signals in cable plant. The present disclosure is directed to a cable modem auto-attenuation system or any other signal transferring system. The system may be capable of taking a high-power signal from the cable plant's service line, dropping the power value down to a usable level and transmitting the signal to a cable modem while eliminating the need for rigorous manual adjustments that a normal cable modem often requires. In certain embodiments, the system may be integrated into a separate device connected between the modem and the cable company service line and configured to handle upstream and downstream attenuation separately or jointly. | 06-28-2012 |

20140323087 | NETWORK ACCESS SELECTION BETWEEN ACCESS NETWORKS - WiFi/3GPP access selection techniques are used to control selection by a user terminal between cellular network cells and Wi-Fi cells. Cellular network cells providing overlapping coverage with Wi-Fi cells are correlated with the Wi-Fi cells. A received signal strength threshold is determined for each Wi-Fi cell based on an average throughput of the cellular network cells correlated with the Wi-Fi cell. The WiFi user terminal admit threshold is used to control the effective coverage of the Wi-Fi cell. A user terminal operating within a cellular network cell is admitted to a Wi-Fi only if it is within the effective coverage area of the Wi-Fi cell as determined by the received signal strength threshold. Increasing the threshold shrinks the effective coverage area of the Wi-Fi cell to allow user terminal only of strong RSSI to make connection to the WiFi Cell, and steers user terminal of weak RSSI away from the Wi-Fi cell. In contrary, decreasing the threshold expands the effective coverage area of the Wi-Fi cell and effectively allows more user terminal making connection to the Wi-Fi cell. | 10-30-2014 |
