Patent ID: 11831530

Abstract:
A jitter determination method for determining jitter associated with a packet-based data stream is described. The jitter determination method includes, for example, receiving at least two data packets associated with the packet-based data stream; selecting one data packet of the at least two data packets to be a reference data packet; determining initial jitter data based on the at least two data packets, wherein the initial jitter data comprises information on actual arrival times of the at least two data packets, respectively; determining expected arrival times for the at least two data packets, respectively; determining a time bias associated with the packet-based data stream based on at least the determined expected arrival time and based on at least the actual arrival time of the data packet not selected to be the reference data packet; and determining corrected jitter data based on the initial jitter data and based on the determined time bias. Further, a jitter determination circuit and a packet-based data stream receiver are described.
