ADAPTIVE MULTIMEDIA CODEC PARAMETER ADAPTATION

摘要

There is provided determining of multimedia codec parameters for a multimedia communications session. A channel quality indicator value representing current throughput characteristics of a communications channel used for the multimedia communications session is acquired. The channel quality indicator value is compared to a previous channel quality indicator value of the communications channel. It is determined, based on the comparing, whether to delay adaptation of values of a set of multimedia codec parameters to be used by a multimedia codec during the multimedia communications session or not, and which values of the set of multimedia codec parameters to adapt.
