1. A spectrum analysis module, comprising:
- an analog to digital converter (ADC) configured to sample a plurality of signals to provide a sampled digital sequence;
a tuner module configured to generate a plurality of sequences based upon the sampled digital sequence, each of the plurality of sequences being characterized as having different spectral characteristics;
a selector module configured to select one of the plurality of sequences from among the plurality of sequences to provide a single sequence; and
a spectral analysis processor configured to perform a spectral analysis of the single sequence to provide spectral measurements.

Abstract
A method of managing traffic in a communications channel includes the steps of receiving a subscriber ID corresponding to a subscriber, performing a spectral analysis on a signal received from the subscriber within a time interval identified by the subscriber ID, and adjusting transmission characteristics of the subscriber based on the spectral analysis.
