  • Hybrid computer modem
    Publication number: 20050031026
    Abstract: Methods and systems provide for operating a modem system having a transmit functionality and a receive functionality. The transmit functionality is implemented in hardware and portions of the receive functionality are implemented in software. In one approach, the receive functionality is partitioned between the software and the hardware based on a resource budget of a computer associated with the modem system.
