Abstract:
Systems and methods for ranging adjustments are provided. In one embodiment, a remote service unit comprises: a transceiver communicatively coupled with a host in a multi-point to point configuration, the transceiver configured to communicate with the host via an OFDM waveform; and a multi-carrier modem coupled to the transceiver and configured to demodulate downstream information data from the OFDM waveform, the multi-carrier modem further configured to modulate upstream information data onto the OFDM waveform. The multi-carrier modem modulates upstream information data onto distinct subcarriers of the OFDM waveform, the multi-carrier modem synchronized with the host so that upstream OFDM signals transmitted by the transceiver and other upstream OFDM signals received at the host unit combine to a unified OFDM waveform. The multi-carrier modem adjusts a round trip path delay between the remote service unit and the host based on a path delay correction received from the host unit.
