16 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

2

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining an upper SNR boundary.

3

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising one or more of generating a report and formulating an instruction.

4

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the instruction is to install a micro filter.

5

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining whether a noise change is one or more of reasonable and significant.

6

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining whether a noise change bound across monitored subcarriers is one or more of reasonable and significant.

7

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining whether the SNR and transmit power levels are observable.

8

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the steps are performed for either a link over a communications channel or for packet transmission.

9

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the unfiltered device is one or more of a telephone, answering machine and fax machine.

11

11. The system of claim 10 , the processing circuitry being further configured to determine an upper SNR boundary.

12

12. The system of claim 10 , the processing circuitry being further configured to generate a report and formulate an instruction.

13

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the instruction is to install a micro filter on a communications channel.

14

14. The system of claim 10 , the processing circuitry being further configured to determine whether a noise change is one or more of reasonable and significant.

15

15. The system of claim 10 , the processing circuitry being further configured to determine whether a noise change bound across monitored subcarriers is one or more of reasonable and significant.

16

16. The system of claim 10 , the processing circuitry being further configured to determine whether the SNR and transmit power levels are observable.

17

17. The system of claim 10 , wherein the system detects unfiltered devices for either a link over a communications channel or for packet transmission.

18

18. The system of claim 10 , wherein the unfiltered device is one or more of a telephone, answering machine and fax machine.
