Abstract:
A cable modem termination system (CMTS) may determine, for a cable modem served by the CMTS, a SNR-related metric. The CMTS may assign the modem among a plurality of service groups based on the SNR-related metric. The CMTS may configure physical layer communication parameters to be used by the modem based on a SNR-related metric of a service group to which the modem is assigned. The physical layer communication parameters may include one or more of: transmit power, receive sensitivity, timeslot duration, modulation type, modulation order, forward error correction (FEC) type, and FEC code rate. The CMTS and the modem may communicate using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) over a plurality of subcarriers, and the physical layer communication parameters may be determined on a per-subcarrier basis.

Claim (Index 15):
The system of  claim 10 , wherein:\n said plurality of service groups comprises a first service group and a second service group; said first service group has a first composite SNR versus frequency profile, said second service group has a second composite SNR versus frequency profile, and said cable modem has a particular SNR versus frequency profile; said assignment of said cable modem to said one of said plurality of service groups comprises, for the cable modem:\n assignment of said cable modem to said first service group if said particular SNR versus frequency profile is more similar to said first composite SNR versus frequency profile than to said second composite SNR versus frequency profile; and \n assignment of said cable modem to said second service group if said particular SNR versus frequency profile is more similar to said second composite SNR versus frequency profile than to said first composite SNR versus frequency profile.
