ABSTRACT:
To adjust transmit power of a DSL modem, an estimated electrical length of a loop is first determined when a 1stDSL modem at a 1stlocation transmits a plurality of signals to a 2ndDSL modem at a 2ndlocation. Each of the signals transmitted by the 1stDSL modem have a known frequency and are transmitted at a known power level. Upon receiving the signals, the 2ndDSL modem determines the received power level for each of the signals. The 2ndDSL modem then estimates an electrical length of a loop between the 1stand 2ndDSL modems for each of the signals received. The 2ndDSL modem then processes a plurality of estimated electrical lengths in accordance with a function to produce a determined electrical length. Having determined the electrical length, the 2ndDSL modem adjusts its transmit power accordingly.
