Sure. The part that I don't really get is how often actual contention for grants happens in docsis today. It's one thing to request a grant, even one that is speculative, but as in wifi - actually getting one strikes me as increasingly hard. Asking for a grant when you end up needing it not, hmm. > > >> documented in the >> patent are already present in most cablemodems already, and not >> really >> tied to the ll spec... but that data would be interesting to get out >> of the modem itself, somehow.

RTT unfairness seems to be a highly desirable feature for the vertically oriented ISP. Convincing anybody else using the internet for real traffic to multiple destinations that this is a "good thing" seems to be an increasingly difficult uphill slog thanks to your work and the work of others appearing. > But to your point, sure, if used as a single queue AQM it will > give us a PIE variant with a reference delay of 15ms (which according > to theory should be good up to a RTT of ~300ms) at the head-end, a > significant improvement on the status quo, albeit only for docsis > users.. I'm happy to see postive movement on the uploads. I have a slide from 2017 somewhere that I should probably animate into this plot. (anybody else have screenshots of this over time?) http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/results/bufferbloat?up=1 There used to be a group of docsis 3.0 modems that is now nearly gone from the statistics now here. While the dslreports dataset is polluted by folk actively fixing their bufferbloat, the tremendous improvement in docsis upstream latency observed since 2017 probably comes down to 4 factors - doubling or more the upstream bandwidth while holding buffersizes constant, ISPs also cutting the buffersizes down, and the docsis-pie deployment, and sqm. As to which of those factors was the greatest... not a clue!

To be deliberately contrarian - (I do try to only pay attention to this a few days a month) - after also re-reading https://www.cablelabs.com/technologies/low-latency-docsis and the associated white papers (yes, 24 hours on a plane can do this to you) 1) I've never been able to figure out where the 99 percentile latency figure so often cited came from. on the upstream which typically runs well below 20Mbit, a single IW10 burst at 10Mbit is 1.3ms, so I've generally figured it was either a long term figure, or calculated from a much higher (100mbit? 1gbit?) downstream rate against some load that's never been documented. (that I know of, please note that I don't read much of the traffic about this stuff) 2) There is a lot of valuable looking stuff in the lower level aspects of the docsis LL standard. I'd noted it when I first read it, but achieving .9ms baseline a/g latency finally does make it competitive with fiber with whatever the heck "pgm" is. So far as I knew, the overlapping grant request and estimator functions documented in the patent are already present in most cablemodems already, and not really tied to the ll spec... but that data would be interesting to get out of the modem itself, somehow. The histogram is made available via a MIB to the operator. It would be nice if those MIBs were also visible to the user somehow. 3) In the docsis-ll white paper and spec it lays out cmts requirements also. With the cmtses currently exhibiting 500+ms of latency at 100Mbit loaded, from a mere "solving bufferbloat" perspective - getting just pie there to work would be *marvelous* - it would be superior to any of the fiber deployments I know of. dualpi, even if not configured for l4s ecn support, would be a godsend. The ECO for cablemodems at least, went out over a year ago. some aqm tech becoming common on these head ends would also spur deployment of aqm (or fq + aqm) tech on fiber also.

Well, one country at a time. NN is currently quite dead in the USA, and only a change in regime might change that, and it's unclear if any of the candiates understand the issues. Certainly with twin subsidies being aimed at 5G and broadband deployment in pending legislation, I have no idea what will happen here next.
