METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR USING CREDITS TO DETERMINE CABLE LENGTH |
摘要 |
Various systems and methods for using credits to determine cable length are described herein. A number of available credits is determined at a transmitter, the credits being received at the transmitter from a receiver, and each of the credits being used for the transmitter to transmit a packet to the receiver. An average number of credits for a period is determined. The cable length between the transmitter and the receiver is determined based on the average number of credits for the period. |

1. A method comprising:
determining a number of available credits at a transmitter, the credits being received at the transmitter from a receiver, the transmitter and receiver being communicatively coupled by a cable, and each of the credits being used by the transmitter to transmit a packet to the receiver; determining an average number of credits for a period based on credits received at the transmitter; and determining, by a processing device, a cable length of the cable between the transmitter and the receiver based on the average number of credits for the period. |
