Service providing method based on service subscriber level on cable network
First Claim
1. A method for providing a service, by a headend cable modem termination system (CMTS), based on a service level of a subscriber at a cable network, comprising the steps of:
- a) initializing a Data Back-off Start (DBS) value and a Data Back-off End (DBE) value of a cable modem (CM);
b) acquiring subscriber information from an external management system;
c) acquiring service flow identifier (SFID) information and service identifier (SID) information from an object model for quality of service (QoS) based on information on Service Class Name (SCN) of the subscriber acquired in the step b);
d) creating manufacturing automation protocol (MAP) according to a priority by controlling the DBS value and the DBE value which is determined by checking the SID information based on the service level, wherein when the SID information corresponds to the SCN of a low service level, the difference between the DBS value and the DBE value becomes maximum by minimizing the DBS value and maximizing the DBE value, and when the SID information corresponds to the SCN of a high service level, the DBS value is maximized under a condition that the DBS value is smaller than or the same as the DBE value, and the DBE value is minimized under a condition that the DBE value is larger than or the same as the DBS value; and
e) transmitting the created MAP to the cable modem;
wherein the DBS value, the DBE value, and a difference are maximized/minimized based on the SID information, the service level, and the SCN.

Abstract
Provided is a method for providing a service based on a subscriber level. The method includes the steps of: a) initializing a Data Back-off Start (DBS) value and a Data Back-off End (DBE) value; b) acquiring subscriber information from an external management system; c) acquiring service flow identifier (SFID) and service identifier (SID) information from an object model for quality of service (QoS) based on information on Service Class Name (SCN) of the subscriber acquired in the step b); d) creating manufacturing automation protocol (MAP) according to a priority by grasping the SID information based on the service level and controlling the DBS value and the DBE value of a cable modem (CM); and e) transmitting the created MAP to the cable modem.
