Abstract:
A network device may receive a signal from a headend, wherein a bandwidth of the received signal spans from a low frequency to a high frequency and encompasses a plurality of sub-bands. The network device may determine, based on communication with the headend, whether one of more of the sub-bands residing above a threshold frequency are available for carrying downstream data from the headend to the circuitry. The network device may digitize the signal using an ADC operating at a sampling frequency. The sampling frequency may be configured based on a result of the determining. When the sub-band(s) are available for carrying downstream data from the headend to the network device, the sampling frequency may be set to a relatively high frequency. When the sub-band(s) are not available for carrying downstream data from the headend to the network device, the sampling frequency may be set to a relatively low frequency.

Claim (Index 30):
A method comprising:\n filtering an analog signal, with an analog filter, to produce a filtered signal, wherein the analog signal comprises critical data and non-critical data; digitizing the filtered signal with an analog-to-digital converter (ADC); and during a power saving mode, adjusting a cut-off frequency of the analog filter according to a highest frequency of the critical data, wherein the highest frequency of the critical data is communicated as a threshold value.
