  Abstract

The Data Over Cable System Interface Specification (DOCSIS) protocol enables the delivery of Internet Protocol(IP) traffic over Cable TV networks with significantly higher data rates. In this paper, we assessed the performance of the DOCSIS protocol using the OPNET. The simulation can be used to predict the upstream system throughput, mean access delay and channel utilization on varying packet size and transmission stream and with/without concatenation, and it has shown that maximum system throughput is 4.6 Mbps for channel capacity of 5.12 Mbps and packet size of 1500 bytes. The mean access delay varies depending on the offered load, and it is assumed that the offered load does not exceed the capacity of the channel. Excess offered load causes service starvation according to the assigned priority.
