Abstract

A method of operating a multi-stream reception scheme, such as DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications), comprising at least two receivers () having respective voltage controlled oscillators (), the method including monitoring a change in local oscillator frequency in a selected one of the at least two streams and, if the frequency distance between the local oscillator frequencies is below a value likely to cause pulling or coupling between the voltage controlled oscillators of the at least two receivers, resetting the frequency planning of the selected one of the at least two streams to maximize the frequency distance of the voltage controlled oscillator of the selected stream with the voltage controlled oscillators of the or the other streams.
