Abstract
A device includes circuitry configured to transmit a first test signal to another device via one or more communication links. The device receives a second test signal transmitted from the another device via the one or more communication links. The circuitry is configured to determine a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the device and the another device. Data rates are determined for the one or more communication links based on the SNR at the device and the another device.
Claims20
A device comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- transmit a first test signal to another device via one or more communication links,
- receive a second test signal transmitted from the another device via the one or more communication links,
- determine a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the device and the another device, and
- determine data rates for the one or more communication links based on the SNR at the device and the another device.
