Abstract
Techniques for implementing timesharing in discontinuous systems, for example to implement low power modes, are discussed. In some embodiments, a set of bit loading tables is determined in advance, and bit loading tables are then selected based on which lines are transmitting and which are quiet.
Claims20
A device arranged to transmit data in a discontinuous operation network, the device comprising provider equipment configured to:
- ransmit data onto lines in the discontinuous operation network that transmits data during normal operation and transmits quiet or idle symbols on some lines during discontinuous operation;
- and
- dynamically set a transmission timing of the data to be transmitted, based on a change of a data rate requirement of at least some of the lines.
A device arranged to transmit data in a discontinuous operation network, the device comprising premises equipment configured to:
- transmit data onto a line amongst a plurality of lines in the discontinuous operation network, wherein that the data is transmitted during normal operation and transmits quiet or idle symbols on the line during discontinuous operation;
- dynamically receive a transmission timing of the data to be transmitted, based on a change of a data rate requirement of the line;
- and
- transmit the data with the transmission timing of the data.
A method to transmit data in a discontinuous operation network, the method comprising:
- transmitting data onto lines in the discontinuous operation network that transmits data during normal operation and transmits quiet or idle symbols on some lines during discontinuous operation;
- dynamically setting a transmission timing of the data to be transmitted, based on a change of a data rate requirement of at least some of the lines.
