COVERSATIONAL INTERACTIVITY MEASUREMENT AND ESTIMATION FOR REAL-TIME MEDIA

摘要

An apparatus (300) and method (400) provides an adaptive end-to-end (E2E) delay threshold (DT) for one-way transmission of information blocks in an information stream of a conversation. Information streams of the conversation are monitored (410), and the E2E DT duration is determined based on detected occurrences of one or more interactive properties 5 associated with the information streams of the conversation (412). Using the adaptive E2E DT duration value, a determination is made as to whether to perform at least one Quality of Service (QoS) function (416)
