Abstract
A cable modem (CM) system for utilizing additional bandwidth is disclosed. The system includes a receiver path, a feedback path, and a feedback receiver. The receiver path is configured to obtain a base signal having a base bandwidth from a downstream signal. The feedback path is configured to obtain an additional signal having an additional bandwidth from the downstream signal and convert the additional signal to a feedback bandwidth. The feedback receiver of a cable modem tuner is configured to process the additional signal using the feedback bandwidth.
