SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CAPACITY ALLOCATION IN HFC CATV NETWORKS
摘要
<p>A system and method for allocating capacity in a hybrid cable television network transmits different channels on the same radio frequency subcarrier of different carriers. This allows a part of the allocated downstream radio frequency spectrum to be reused by utilizing multiple carriers. Carriers selection at a downstream location determines which channel is received by any particular subscriber. In this way, services can be tailored to subscriber groups.</p>
