Devices, systems and processes for identifying and detecting an interfering signal are described. A process may include conducting a scan of one or more frequency bands to obtain at least one scan result and determining therefrom if a response condition has been detected. If so detected, a first frequency band corresponding to the detected response condition may be identified and a response condition action to be performed determined. If no response condition action is to be performed, scanning continues. If a response condition is to be performed two or more available sensors are identified and a first sensor is selected. A scan plan is developed and then initiated by the first sensor. Data from the first sensor is received and analyzed to identify a second frequency band indicative of an interfering signal. Based on at least the scan data, a location for a signal interference source (SIS) may be estimated.

Identifying signal interference sources

Devices, systems and processes for detecting and remediating interfence signals and identifying signal interference sources

In one embodiment, a device receives data from a network at a TCP buffer at a selected data rate, and copies the data from the TCP buffer to a decoder buffer at a reading rate. Once decreasing the reading rate to decrease a level of the decoder buffer, the device may increase the reading rate to an upshift probe rate, and monitors a TCP buffer level during reading at the upshift probe rate to determine whether the network can support the upshift probe rate. If the TCP buffer level decreases to a lower threshold during the upshift probe rate, the device returns to read data from the TCP buffer by the decoder buffer at the reading rate. If the TCP buffer level stays above the lower threshold during the upshift probe rate, the device may trigger a corresponding upshift in a send rate from a sender of the data.

Reducing buffer bloat while probing for additional bandwidth in an adaptive bitrate network

In one embodiment, a system and method include determining bandwidth of a link that connects a local modem to a remote router. A first percentage of the bandwidth is assigned to a first class of data and a second percentage of bandwidth is assigned to a second class of data. The remaining percentage of the bandwidth is assigned for nominal excess capacity. The flow of first class of data and second class of data are controlled to below respective percentages of the bandwidth.
