Patent ID: 8855145

Claim:
A method of transmitting data of a real-time communication event from a transmitter to a jitter buffer of a receiver, the method comprising: receiving, at the transmitter from the receiver, jitter buffer state information indicating a state of the jitter buffer; controlling at least one processing parameter based on the received jitter buffer state information, said at least one processing parameter describing how data is to be processed for transmission from the transmitter to the jitter buffer in the real-time communication event; processing data for transmission from the transmitter to the jitter buffer in accordance with the determined at least one processing parameter, the processing data further comprising processing a stream of data packets by at least generating correction data units relating to at least one of the data packets, the at least one processing parameter comprising at least a correction depth which sets the maximum allowable displacement in the stream of data packets between the oldest and the newest of the data packets that are allowed to be related to one of the correction data units; and transmitting the processed data from the transmitter to the jitter buffer of the receiver in the real-time communication event.
