Abstract
An electronic device, method, and computer-readable recording medium track the number of times a device loses lock on a first channel. Under a condition that the device loses lock or regains lock on the first channel a predetermined number of times over a time period, the electronic device, method, and computer-readable recording medium abandon the first channel and reinitialize to select a second channel.
Claims11
An electronic device capable of ingress noise mitigation on channels in a network, the electronic device comprising:
- a non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon;
- and
- a hardware processor configured to execute the instructions to:
- track a number of times a device loses lock on a first channel;
- and
- under a condition that the device loses lock or regains lock on the first channel a predetermined number of times over a time period, abandon the first channel and reinitialize to select a second channel.
A method for ingress noise mitigation on channels in a network, the method comprising:
- tracking, using an electronic device, a number of times a device loses lock on a first channel;
- and
- under a condition that the device loses lock or regains lock on the first channel a predetermined number of times over a time period, abandoning the first channel and reinitializing to select a second channel.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium in a first electronic device for ingress noise mitigation on channels in a network, the non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing instructions which when executed by a hardware processor cause the non-transitory recording medium to perform steps comprising:
- tracking a number of times a device loses lock on a first channel;
- and
- under a condition that the device loses lock or regains lock on the first channel a predetermined number of times over a time period, abandoning the first channel and reinitializing to select a second channel.
