Wideband Upstream Protocol

View page
US Patent:
7532627, May 12, 2009
Filed:
May 23, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/135777
Inventors:
John T. Chapman - Saratoga CA, US
Alon Shlomo Bernstein - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H04L 12/56
US Classification:
37039541, 370429
Abstract:
Some embodiments of the present invention may include a method to stream packets into a queue for an upstream transmission, send multiple requests for upstream bandwidth to transmit data from the queue and receiving multiple grants to transmit data, and transmit data from the queue to the upstream as grants are received. Another embodiment may provide a network comprising a cable modem termination system (CMTS), and a cable modem wherein the cable modem may transmit data to the CMTS with a streaming protocol that sends multiple requests for upstream bandwidth to transmit data and receives multiple grants to transmit data, and transmits data to the CMTS as grants are received.

Methods And Devices For Regulating Traffic On A Network

View page
US Patent:
7627675, Dec 1, 2009
Filed:
May 1, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/428865
Inventors:
Alon Bernstein - Sunnyvale CA, US
Chrisanto Leano - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G06F 15/173
US Classification:
709225, 709226, 709223, 709224, 709232, 709233, 709235
Abstract:
Methods and devices are provided for regulating traffic on a network. According to some aspects of the invention, if a subscriber's upstream traffic exceeds a predetermined level over a first period of time, the subscriber's quality of service is adjusted without requiring the subscriber to re-register. According to some embodiments, a first token bucket is used to determine whether the subscriber's upstream traffic exceeds the predetermined level over the first period of time. In some such embodiments, the first token bucket is used to control the burst size of another token bucket, depending on the subscriber's upstream traffic during the first period of time.

Upstream Physical Interface For Modular Cable Modem Termination System

View page
US Patent:
7639617, Dec 29, 2009
Filed:
May 17, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/131766
Inventors:
John T. Chapman - Saratoga CA, US
Daniel W. Crocker - San Jose CA, US
Eric Youngman - San Jose CA, US
Alon S. Bernstein - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H04J 1/16
H04L 12/26
US Classification:
370235
Abstract:
A modular Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS) includes a packet shelf operating a Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications (DOCSIS) Media Access Control (MAC) framer. One or more downstream Physical Interface (PHY) shelves receive DOCSIS data from the packet shelf over a packet switched network and modulate the DOCSIS data for sending on a downstream path of a cable plant. One or more upstream PHY shelves send DOCSIS data received from an upstream path of the cable plant over the packet switched network to the packet shelf. By separating the PHY components from the MAC and from the system software, the PHY components for a Hybrid Fiber Coax (HFC) plant may be replaced with different PHY components for other access technologies such as wireless, Digital Subscriber Lines (DSL), Ethernet-to-the-Home, Fiber-to-the-Home, or fiber Passive Optical Networks (PONs).

Advanced Multicast Support For Cable

View page
US Patent:
7701938, Apr 20, 2010
Filed:
Dec 1, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/292725
Inventors:
Alon Shlomo Bernstein - Sunnyvale CA, US
Harsh Parandekar - San Jose CA, US
Toerless Eckert - Mountainview CA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H04L 12/28
US Classification:
370390, 370432, 370392, 370352, 370270, 725111
Abstract:
Embodiments may comprise a cable network that shifts control plane functionality for multicast sessions to a cable modem termination system allowing multicast without a cable modem snooping messages from a coupled device. Another embodiment may comprise a network including a device to generate a request to join a multicast session over a cable network, a cable modem termination system in communication with the device, the cable modem termination system to receive the request from the device and to generate a flow identifier to associate with the multicast session, and a cable modem in communication with the cable modem termination system and the device, the cable modem to receive the flow identifier from the cable modem termination system and forward the multicast session to the device from the cable modem termination system based on the flow identifier. Other embodiments may comprise an apparatus that has a port to receive a request from a cable modem to join a multicast session, and circuitry to generate a flow identifier to associate with the multicast session and communicate the flow identifier to the cable modem to allow the cable modem to forward the multicast session to a device.

Filed:
May 25, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/138220
Inventors:
John T. Chapman - Saratoga CA, US
Alon Shlomo Bernstein - Sunnyvale CA, US
Jin Zhang - Sunnyvale CA, US
William Guckel - Boxborough MA, US
Shengyou Zeng - Concord MA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G01R 31/08
H04B 1/44
H04L 12/28
US Classification:
370229, 370282, 370392
Abstract:
A provisioning server has a port to receive a request for a network address including an indication that a remote device is wideband capable. The provisioning server also has a processor to respond to the request with a network address and include an address for a configuration file and to provide a configuration file that allows wideband service. A cable modem has a port to request a network address and indicate wideband capability. The cable modem also has a processor to receive a response to that request that includes a network address and an address for a configuration file. The processor also receives a configuration file and allows the cable modem to be configured for wideband service.

Qos On Bonded Channels Of A Shared Access Cable Network

View page
US Patent:
8040807, Oct 18, 2011
Filed:
Mar 13, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/404219
Inventors:
Prashant Pai - San Jose CA, US
Anna Charny - Sudbury MA, US
Alon Bernstein - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H04J 1/16
US Classification:
370236
Abstract:
Various techniques are disclosed for managing traffic flow for transport over a plurality of communication channels of a shared access cable network. According to various embodiments, one or more devices of the cable network (such as, for example, a Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS)), may be operable to implement at least a portion of the traffic flow management techniques. In at least one embodiment, one or more aspects of the traffic flow management techniques disclosed herein may be used for performing real-time shaping of traffic flows across multiple different channels of a DOCSIS channel bonding group. In some embodiments, various different traffic shaping and/or traffic scheduling techniques may be employed (e. g. , in DOCSIS 3. 0 compatible cable networks) to reduce and/or mitigate issues which, for example, may arise as a result of an inability to represent traffic schedulers as tree-based hierarchies.
