Hi Bernard, Page 8 of the following ( PDF format) document, from Mot.) -- indicates that their proposed PHY upstream protocol is derived from the DOCSIS 1.1 RF interface specification.

I have found no references to DOCSIS 1.1 in the Media Access
Protocol documents that I have so far been able to download.

grouper.ieee.org

Now a question (for ANYONE) regarding the MAC documents --

I have been unable to find to an answer to Frank C's questions (or to satisfy my own curiosity) about Channel Contention, or a Collision Avoidance scheme in the xOFDM proposals.

My assumption would be that the MAC is the place to include
something like CSMA/CA (the 802.11x Carrier Sensing
and Collision Avoidance scheme) .

If there is no need for such a specification, why not ?

Best Regards,
Mardy.
