Abstract

An apparatus for estimating far-end crosstalk RDS-FEXT, i (fd) or an end (C1-2) of a communication line (C1) furthest from a transceiver (10-1) to which the communication line (C1) is connected. The apparatus is configured to: measure upstream noise RUS-Noise(fu) at an upstream frequency (fu), the upstream noise RUS-Noise(fu) induced in the communication line (C1) due to the crosstalk; select a downstream frequency (fd) for which the far-end crosstalk RDS-FEXT, i (fd) is to determined; and estimate the far-end crosstalk RDS-FEXT, i (fd)′ as a function of the upstream Noise RUS-Noise(fu), the upstream frequency (fu) and the downstream frequency (fd). An apparatus reversing upstream and downstream features, a system, a computer readable medium and related methods are also described.
