Information about OFDM Channel Configuration

OFDM Channels

DOCSIS 3.1 introduces modes for higher throughput and higher spectral efficiency while still allowing backward compatibility to DOCSIS 3.0. OFDM Channel support includes one OFDM channel per port with channel bandwidth from 24 MHz to 192 MHz wide.

Each OFDM channel supports a control profile, an NCP profile, and up to five data profiles. Profiles support one or more modulations.

Starting from Cisco IOS-XE release 3.18.1SP, you can configure the guard band of an OFDM channel to potentially trade off some performance margin using command guardband-override . By default, Cisco cBR-8 router use the default guard band, which is based on the roll off and spacing in OFDM channel profile.

DOCSIS 3.1 OFDM support also allows the user to configure the RF-channels 158 to 162 under the mac-domain as primary channel.


Note


OFDM channel can only be used as secondary channel as part of a Wideband group. Primary channel needs to be configured as normal DOCSIS 3.0 primary RF channel.


Channel Profile

A globally configured OFDM channel profile contains channel parameters, and the modulation or modulation profile associated with the control, NCP, and data profiles.

Each OFDM channel must specify an OFDM channel profile in its configuration.

Modulation Profile

A globally configured OFDM modulation profile assigns different modulations to ranges of sub-carriers, or lists of individual sub-carriers.

A modulation profile may be assigned to a control, NCP, or data profile in a channel profile.

OFDM Channel Exclusion Band

Ranges of frequencies can be excluded from all OFDM channels on a port using the ofdm-freq-excl-band command.

How to Configure OFDM Channel

Configuring OFDM Modulation Profile

To configure the OFDM modulation profile, follow the steps below:

enable 
configure terminal 
cable downstream ofdm-modulation-profile id 
description text 
subcarrier-spacing value 
width value 
start-frequency value 
assign {modulation-default mod_prof_id | modulation mod_prof_id {list-subcarriers {freq-abs | freq-offset} value | range-subcarriers {freq-abs | freq-offset} value width value}} 

Note


Subcarrier spacing must match the subcarrier spacing of each channel profile in which it is configured.


Verifying OFDM Modulation Profile Configuration

To display the OFDM modulation profile details, use the show cable ofdm-modulation-profiles command as shown in the example below:

Router# show cable ofdm-modulation-profile 10

Configuring OFDM Channel as Primary Channel

To configure an RF-channel in the mac-domain as an OFDM primary channel, use the following commands.
enable
configure terminal
interface cable <slot/subslot/port> downstream Integrated-Cable <slot/subslot/port> 
rf-channel <ofdm-channel-number: 158-162>
end

Verifying OFDM Primary Channel Configuration

To display the OFDM channel configuration details, where the OFDM channel is the primary channel, use the command as shown in the following example:
Router#sh run int c3/0/3
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 539 bytes
!
interface Cable3/0/3

end
You can also use the following command to display the OFDM primary channel configuration details as shown in this example.
Router#sh cable mac-domain c3/0/3 cgd-associations

The show cable mac-domain Cable <slot>/<subslot>/<port> mdd command also displays the OFDM primary channel configuration details as shown in the example.

RF channels use a zero-based numbering scheme, whereas the downstream channel IDs are numbered starting from one. Thus RF channel 158 is equivalent to channel ID 159. The Channel ID in this example is 159. The MAP/UCD Transport Indicator shows that MAPs and UCDs are sent only on Primary Channels.

Configuring Port/Controller and Channel

To configure the port/controller and channel, follow the steps below:

enable 
configure terminal 
controller integrated-cable slot/subslot/port 
max-ofdm-spectrum value 
ofdm-freq-excl-band start-frequency value width value 
rf-chan start_id [end_id] 
ofdm channel-profile id start-frequency value width value [plc value] 

Note


The range of start_id is 158 to 162 in the OFDM channel configuration.

The maximum OFDM spectrum is assigned to OFDM channels, which is used by the the CMTS to calculate default port base power.

Ranges of frequencies can be excluded from all OFDM channels using the ofdm-freq-excl-band command.


Verifying Port/Controller and Channel Configuration

To display the RF port details, use the show controller integrated-cable command with rf-port option as shown in the example below:

Router# show controller integrated-cable 3/0/0 rf-port

To display the summary information on OFDM channel, use the show controller integrated-cable command with rf-channel option as shown in the example below:

Configuration Examples

This section provides examples for configuring the OFDM channel.

Example1: Configuring OFDM Channel


Note


The OFDM modulation profile must be configured before the OFDM channel profile which references it.


The following example shows how to configure the OFDM channel:

enable 
configure terminal
