Abstract:As interactive services require more bandwidth, high speed access networks must follow this trend. Although a Hybrid Fiber Coax (HFC) system provides a large bandwidth, many problems occur due to the accumulation of the ingress and impulse noise. In this paper the properties of the ingress and impulse noise will be explained based on a measurement campaign on different networks.The most striking result of the measurement campaign is the large dynamic and time-dependent behavior of the ingress noise. This dynam… Show more
