METHODS FOR MULTIFRAME ALIGNMENT

摘要

Methods for multiframe alignment are provided. In one embodiment, a method comprises sharing upstream bandwidth capacity among a plurality of remote units in a manner that permits at least two of the remote units to transmit to a host at any one time using the upstream bandwidth capacity, the upstream bandwidth capacity provided by using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with a plurality of tones; and causing at least one remote unit to adjust the timing of transmissions transmitted on at least one of the plurality of tones in order to improve alignment of multiframes received at the host.
