PMD = physical

PMS = physical
medium specific
The TPS-TC is mainly intended to convert data into the unified format
required and to provide bit rate adaptation between the user data and
the data link established by the VTU. Possible TCs are: PTM-TC, ATM-TC
or STM-TC
PTM-TC receives packets from the higher layer, appends a CRC and then
performs 64/65-octet encapsulation on the frame. This result is sent to
the PMS-TC
The principal functions of the PMD are symbol timing generation and
recovery, encoding and decoding, and modulation and demodulation. The
PMD may also include echo cancellation and line Equalization.

Data Frame (DF)
a data symbol is used to transmit payload information
Synchronization Frame (SF)
a synchronization frame is transmitted after 256 data symbols to assure
synchronization and to detect possible loss of frame. The content of the
sync frame is fixed. If an on-line reconfiguration is being signalled the SF is
180° phase reversed
VDSL symbol rates
DMT symbol rate = 4 kHz (tone spacing=4.3125kHz) (<> 30MHz plan)
DATA symbol rate = DMT symbol rate x 256/257

Profiles
Defines VDSL2 variants with different bandwidths and transmit powers
Also defines the required range for key parameters to be supported
Corresponds with defining various levels of hardware-complexity
Advantages:
The “Profile concept” avoids the creation of separate standards e.g. VDSL2-,
VDSL2, VDSL2+, VDSL2++
profiles are inspired by different deployment scenarios
But standard does not explicitly limit the profiles to certain scenarios
Deployment from the Exchange (FTTEx), cabinet (FTTCab), in-building (FTTB)
profiles allow for optimal implementation in different environments
prevent cost/density penalty for FTTEx and FTTCab
prevent bandwidth limitation or power penalty for FTTB

Other considerations
Higher Tx power will also increase power dissipation and may impact
achievable port density.
Implementation needs compromise between performance and power
dissipation / port density.
If all lines go to higher power, VDSL2 crosstalk will increase with the same
amount.
performance will not change under crosstalk conditions.
Remote deployment does not require 20.5 dBm
aggregate power within ETSI 998 Pcab.M2 mask (A) is 12.0 dBm
with PSD shaping, aggregate power within mask depends upon shape, but is
always below Pex level

When the noise margin is higher than the “upshift noise margin” the
bit rate is increased
The bit rate will increase till the noise margin gets below the upshift
margin or till the rate reaches the max rate
SRA upshifts will only go back to TNM+1 [dB], not to TNM!
When the noise margin is lower than the “downshift noise margin” the
bit rate is decreased
The bit rate will decrease till the noise margin gets above the downshift
margin or till the rate reaches the min rate
SRA downshifts will only go back up to TNM-1 [dB], not to TNM.
Downstream: the CPE sends SRA requests to the CO with OLR messages
over the EOC channel:
The rate change occurs if the measured noise margin stays above or
below the shift margin for a long enough (programmable) time

For a stable VDSL2 line in SRA, increase noise margins for SRA;
upshift NM (by default 7 dB increase to e.g. 8 or 9 dB)
to avoid toggling
downshift NM (by default 2 dB increase to 5 dB)
to have a more stable line

The impulse noise sensor (INS) indicates whether a data symbol is severely
degraded or not.
The cluster indicator indicates short groups of severely degraded data
symbols as clusters.
In the Eq INP generation block, the "equivalent INP" of the cluster is
generated.
In the IAT generation block, the inter-arrival time (IAT) is generated as the
number of data symbols from the start of a cluster to the start of the next
cluster.

Attention: Low delays and high INPs increase the RS-overhead and
decrease the net data rate
Note that with G.inp, there’s little need to know the exact settings for
min. INP and max. delay!
hence, the INM is rarely used.
Based on the histograms, you can derive the optimal minINP and
maxDelay settings
E.g. min INP = 2 – max delay = 8 ms

The O-TPS message conveys the TPS-TC configuration for both the
upstream and the downstream directions. It is based on the capabilities
that were indicated in O-MSG 1 and R-MSG 2.
The values exchanged in Fields #8 to #11 shall be valid during initialization and
showtime. In particular, interleaver reconfiguration in a given latency path shall not lead
to an interleaver delay that exceeds the values exchanged in O-PMS for that latency
path. Any OLR command that results in a delay value that is higher than the one
exchange during initialization shall be rejected.

autonomously or on request
normal initialization measurements: data collected during init are
exchanged at start of show-time
special “Loop Diagnostic mode” initialization: extra-robust initialization
under operator control for when line quality is too poor to reach show-time
