Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for deploying upstream bandwidth upgrade of devices per home basis. The impact of the upstream bandwidth upgrade on the devices may be pre-estimated based on remotely monitoring and/or analyzing performance data of the devices collected during transmissions of test signals (e.g., a burst of upstream transmissions) in real-time from the devices operating under different modes of operations. The burst of upstream transmissions using a small bandwidth (e.g., 1.6 MHz) may be limited to a short duration of time (e.g., 5 seconds) so that on-going services provided by the devices are not substantially interrupted. The upstream bandwidth of the devices, based on the pre-estimated impact, may be upgraded, left unaltered, or downgraded.
