METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR JITTER BUFFERING WITHIN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method and apparatus for performing jitter buffering is provided herein. During operation, a system will utilize variable-length jitter buffers within each receiver. Each receiver will then be assigned an appropriate jitter-buffer size based upon system constraints. In one embodiment of the present invention jitter-buffer size is adjusted on a per call (or even per call/speech segment) basis and is based on both the source and destination capabilities.
