Patent ID: 7881403

Claim:
A method of mitigating crosstalk noise effects in a high-bandwidth communication network, the method comprising the steps of: providing a transceiver pair operating in the communication network; after initialization, detecting a presence of a sudden increased noise level affecting a receiving member of the transceiver pair; generating an operation request, from the receiving member to a transmitting member of the transceiver pair, indicating a plurality of bit reduction on values included in a transmission adjustment reference, wherein the transmission adjustment reference is used for adjusting a transmission reference to an adjusted transmission reference, and wherein the transmission adjustment reference defines one or more frequency break points and a corresponding bit reduction value for each frequency break point, each frequency break point indicates a starting frequency of a frequency band, and the corresponding bit reduction value is applied to all used bins within the frequency band; generating a trigger signal, from the transmitting member to the receiving member, to initiate a switch to the adjusted transmission reference; and synchronizing an operational shift, by both the receiving member and transmitting member, to communication utilizing the adjusted transmission reference.
