Abstract

Techniques and systems for performing calibration. A method includes: creating a common calibration pool for performing a calibration operation for two or more communication links, wherein the calibration operation is common to the two or more communication links; and performing a calibration on each of the two or more communication links using the common calibration pool by receiving a calibration request associated with the common calibration operation via a link calibration interface, wherein the calibration request is from at least one of the two or more communication links, upon determining the calibration agent is available to handle the calibration request, retrieving a calibration engine from at least one of the plurality of calibration clusters corresponding to the calibration operation, retrieving a calibration engine from at least one of the plurality of calibration clusters corresponding to the calibration operation, and performing the common calibration based on the retrieving.
