Introduction
The RiverClear spectrum management system monitors the upstream signal integrity,and collects upstream spectrum information. When signal integrity degrades due to noise, the spectrum management system automatically configures the upstream channel parameters to maintain low packet loss by changing the upstream frequency,power, channel-width, and/or modulation profile to ensure that upstream performance stays at acceptable levels.
Spectrum Management
The following tasks are used to implement frequency agility on the BSR: Configuring Spectrum Groups Applying a Spectrum Group to an Upstream Port Showing Spectrum Data
Spectrum hopping rules determine the action taken when the spectrum manager decides to change the upstream parameters of a channel to combat noise. Operators can specify power adjustments, modulation profile changes, and channel-width reduction until channel conditions improve.
Spectrum Groups
Creating a Spectrum Group
Spectrum Groups
RDN(config-spcgrp:spectrum 1)#
Use the band command in Cable Spectrum Group mode to define the start and end frequency band for the spectrum group, as shown below: RDN(config-spcgrp:<group-name>)#band {<start> <end>} where: group-name is the spectrum group name that you defined. start is the start upstream frequency from 5000000 to 65000000 Hertz. end is the end upstream frequency from 5000000 to 65000000 Hertz.
Spectrum Groups
Time Allocation of Spectrum Groups
RDN(config-spcgrp:<group-name>)#time <hh:mm:ss> band {<start> <end>} where: group-name is the spectrum group name. RDN(config-spcgrp:<group-name>)#time {<day> <hh:mm:ss>} band {<start> <end>} For example, the following syntax is used to express that the band from 27 MHz to 29 MHz, belonging to spectrum group spectrum 1, is available every Thursday morning at 10:00 AM: RDN(config-spcgrp:spectrum 1)#time Thursday 10:00:00 band 27000000 29000000
Use the collect spectrum-data cable upstream command in Privileged EXEC mode to collect spectrum data information manually, as shown in the following example RDN#collect spectrum-data cable <slot>/<port> upstream <n> where: slot is the DOCSIS module number, port is the cable interface number, n is the upstream port number
Use the guard-band command in Cable Spectrum Group mode to set the minimum spectrum separation or spacing between upstream channels in the same spectrum group. RDN(config-spcgrp:<group-name>)#guard-band <n> where: n is the guard band separation size from 0 to 60000000 Hz. Default guard band is 1000 Hz
