Abstract

See full text

Methods, modems and computer program products for detecting whether a remote modem is of a particular design type and for adjusting the communication configuration for a communication session based on a type of the remote modem. The modem type is recognized based on a knowledge that the modem design of certain manufacturers has a unique associated data pattern contained within the startup communication sequence which is not specified by the protocol but which can be demodulated and detected to thereby recognize that the remote modem is a particular manufacturer's design type. Based on knowledge of the characteristics of the remote modem design, various steps are taken which may improve performance of the communication connection in light of the particular modem design's characteristics. For example, a different Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) threshold may be used for falling back to V.34 communications when the remote modem design only supports up to 2 look ahead for spectrum shaping.
