摘要： Receivers, methods, and computer program products can be used to demodulate a data signal transmitted from a digital source, which has a network sampling rate that is synchronized with a network clock. In an illustrative embodiment, a receiver includes a two-stage interpolator that receives digital samples of the data signal as an input and produces an interpolated digital sample stream to be filtered by an adaptive fractionally spaced decision feedback equalizer. The digital samples received in the interpolator are synchronized with a local clock; however, the interpolated sample stream is synchronized with the network clock. A slicer generates symbols for the samples output from the decision feedback equalizer by comparing the samples with a reference signaling alphabet. The receiver can be used in a V.90 client modem to demodulate pulse code modulated (PCM) data transmitted as pulse amplitude modulated (PAM) signals from a digital network. In addition, the receiver is compatible with legacy analog modem front ends and transmitters. The two-stage interpolator allows the timing synchronization to be performed with extremely fine granularity, which can be useful in PCM modems that typically require relatively high signal to noise ratios.

摘要： Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for monitoring performance of a modem which obtain diagnostic data directly from memory associated with the modem's digital signal processor (DSP). A secondary path to the DSP memory is utilized for the monitoring operations so that real time data can be obtained during connection startup procedures and during an active connection. First-in first-out (FIFO) buffers are incorporated in the DSP memory to track state transitions of one or more of the state machines within the modem and various performance data measurements may be obtained directly from the DSP memory responsive to different state transition events. The real time collected data may be stored in a file and provided to a remote location for use in diagnosing customer problems with specific customer line connections. Accordingly, real time monitoring of digital and analog line conditions and modem performance may be utilized to diagnose problems with modems and line connections.

摘要： Modems, methods, and computer program products select a data rate based on error signals in a modem. In an illustrative embodiment, error signals representing the difference between an output of an equalizer and an output of a detector are accumulated and an average error value is computed therefrom. A signal to noise ratio is determined using the average error value. The signal to noise ratio is then used to select a data rate. In another illustrative embodiment, the mean squared error at the output of the equalizer is determined and then used, along with the probability of error in correctly detecting a symbol, to select a data rate. Incorrect decisions in detecting received data symbols can cause a catastrophic failure in a decision feedback equalizer used in a modem receiver as errors are repeatedly fed back causing the tap coefficients for the equalizer filters to be shifted from their normal operating values. By adjusting the data rate in accordance with the error signals generated in a modem receiver, the decision feedback equalizer can operate with greater stability as the data rate can be reduced in response to increased noise conditions.

摘要： Methods, modems and computer program products for detecting whether a remote modem is of a particular design type and for adjusting the communication configuration for a communication session based on a type of the remote modem. The modem type is recognized based on a knowledge that the modem design of certain manufacturers has a unique associated data pattern contained within the startup communication sequence which is not specified by the protocol but which can be demodulated and detected to thereby recognize that the remote modem is a particular manufacturer's design type. Based on knowledge of the characteristics of the remote modem design, various steps are taken which may improve performance of the communication connection in light of the particular modem design's characteristics. For example, a different Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) threshold may be used for falling back to V.34 communications when the remote modem design only supports up to 2 look ahead for spectrum shaping.

摘要： Robbed Bit Signaling (RBS) and PAD digital impairments in sets of Digital Impairment Learning (DIL) signals that are repeatedly transmitted from a server modem to a client modem during DIL intervals are identified by identifying a PAD level for the sets of DIL signals in the DIL intervals and then identifying an RBS type for individual sets of DIL signals based upon the PAD levels so identified. The PAD level may be identified using model DIL signals that correspond to PAD levels that are not subject to RBS. The RBS type may be identified using model DIL signals that correspond to multiple RBS types that are subject to the identified PAD level. More specifically, one of the DIL intervals that contains DIL signals that are not subject to RBS is identified. A PAD level for the DIL signals in the one of the DIL intervals so identified then is determined. The PAD level that was determined is applied to the DIL signals in remaining ones of the DIL intervals, to identify an RBS for the DIL signals in the remaining ones of the DIL intervals.

摘要： Decision feedback equalizers having a stabilization capability, and methods and computer program products for stabilizing a decision feedback equalizer under severe error conditions use output samples from an equalizer to determine whether a severe error event has occurred in accordance with predefined criteria. If a severe error occurs, then a determination is made to evaluate whether the number of severe errors that have occurred has exceeded a threshold. If the threshold has been exceeded, then the coefficients for the filter(s) in the decision feedback equalizer are preserved in their current state. Severe errors can cause the equalizer filter coefficients to be pulled away from their normal operating values, which can result in several modulation cycles passing before the coefficients are restored. By preserving the equalizer filter coefficients under severe error conditions, the present invention prevents sharp or dramatic changes to the coefficient values from their steady state values allowing the decision feedback equalizer to recover more quickly from the errors.

摘要： Error rate control systems, methods, and computer program products request a data rate slow-down based on the status of the error rate. A linear penalty is generated if a data rate slow-down is requested, which is then used to determine a minimum distance between constellation points in a signaling constellation or alphabet. Because the minimum distance between constellation points may be directly related to the error probability, the error rate may be controlled through the linear penalty.

摘要： Modems, methods, and computer program products for falling back to a low speed mode of operation upon detection of abnormal line conditions during startup perform a first phase of a multiphase startup procedure in accordance with a high speed mode of operation. A determination is then made whether the line conditions will support high speed communication. If a high speed connection cannot be established, then subsequent phases of the startup procedure will be performed in accordance with the low speed mode of operation. Otherwise, subsequent phases of the startup procedure will be performed in accordance with the high speed mode of operation. By detecting abnormal line conditions, such as digital discontinuity, severe attenuation, or a local loop having a non-linear frequency response, early in the startup protocol, the remainder of the startup protocol can be performed in accordance with a low speed more of operation as the detected abnormalities in the communication path will prevent the establishment of a higher data rate connection. Accordingly, the reliability and efficiency of the startup protocol are improved.

摘要： A remote controller is coupled to a target system via a computer network A real time probe is installed in software executing on a target system, typically a Digital Signal Processor (DSP). The remote controller includes a “debugger user interface” which accepts and interprets scoping commands issued by a developer. A controller network driver constructs appropriate network packets to be sent over the network to the target system. The target system has a control processor which runs a target network driver for receiving the network packets containing the scoping commands. The scoping commands are sent to an “embedded debugger” which performs the requested probing/scoping. When the DSP code runs across an address where the probe is installed, the embedded debugger will collect the signal values. The collected scope data will be interleaved and sent to the target network driver which, will encapsulate the information into suitable packets to send back to the controller via the network.
