چکیده
The standardization work has been successfully achieved under the leadership of CableLabs, with the successful launch of DOCSIS 1.0 and 1.1 products, and the finalization of the DOCSIS 2.0 [1] specification. Definition of an interoperable Voice over IP architecture covering signaling, provisioning, security has been achieved [2], allowing MSO to deploy data and voice access systems on an economical way.

Supporting Quality of Service in the Head - End of Hybrid Fiber - Coaxial Networks
Many cable operators have begun the process of upgrading their cable systems in anticipation of delivering a wide range of interactive digital services to the home. These newer hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) networks can take advantage of unused bandwidth in broadcast cable television (CATV) and allow for an inexpensive and simple way for home users to have access to many broadband digital applicat...

The IEEE working group is currently standardizing a new media access control MAC protocol for the emerging Hybrid Fiber Coax HFC networks Crucial for the success of will be its ability to support Quality of Service QoS for delay and throughput sensitive applications such as multimedia Two methods are presented in this thesis to provide QoS e cient interoperability with Asynchronous Transfer Mod...
متن کاملScheduling Delay Minimization for Non-UGS Data in Multi-Channel HFC Network
The multi-channel Hybrid Fiber Coaxial (HFC) network is essentially a shared medium with multi-channels. Its operation requires the use of a scheduling algorithm to manage the data transmission within each channel. The Data-Over-Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) protocol is an important standard for HFC networks. Since this protocol does not explicitly specify the scheduling algori...
متن کاملOn the Performance Modelling and Optimisation of DOCSIS HFC Networks
The DOCSIS protocol defines the MAC and physical layer operations governing two-way transmission of voice, video and multimedia data over HFC cable networks, thus constituting a complex system with many interdependent parameters. This tutorial employs simulation and analytic methodologies for the performance modelling and optimisation of DOCSIS 1.1/2.0 HFC networks with particular focus on the ...
متن کاملDeployment of Live-Video Services Based on Streaming Technology over an HFC Network
This paper presents an approach to the deployment of a live-video service based on streaming technology over an HFC network. This approach covers most of the issues that may arise while putting one of these services into operation, taking into account new aspects such as those oriented to the improvement and prior analysis of the service’s behaviour. An accurate and continuous service analysis ...
