Abstract

See full text

A apparatus or method for detecting CPD in an HFC network, comprising: (a) acquiring digital RF downstream signals from a CMTS or CM; (b) emulating even and odd order IM distortion products from the downstream signals; (c) acquiring RF upstream signals from the CMTS during a quiet period; (d) cross-correlating the RF upstream signals with the emulated even and odd order IM products to produce even and odd order cross-correlation functions, respectively; (e) accumulating, separately, a multiplicity of even and odd order cross-correlation functions; (f) calculating even and odd order cross-correlation envelopes from the accumulated even and odd order cross-correlation functions, respectively; and (g) detecting a CPD source from either or both of the even and odd order cross-correlation envelopes by the presence of a peak in either or both of the envelopes.
