Abstract
A cable modem (CM) device captures signals over a wide spectrum including one or more cable frequency bands and sub-bands, and extracts one or more cable channels from the captured signals. The CM device is operable to analyze the extracted one or more cable channels and assigns a portion of the extracted one or more cable channels for upstream and/or downstream communication based on the analysis. The CM device may recapture one or more previously unused cable channels to be utilized for the upstream and/or downstream communication based on the analysis. The CM device may determine noise, interference and/or blocker information corresponding to the extracted one or more cable channels based on the analysis. Based on the determined noise, interference and/or blocker information, the cable modem termination system (CMTS) may assign or block usage of one or more cable channels for the upstream and/or downstream communication.
