A packet data communication system that includes a mobile station having a jitter buffer and a wireless infrastructure having a base site serving the mobile station controls a size or depth of the jitter buffer. The size of depth is controlled based on based on a number of retransmissions of erroneously received data employed by the system, a radio frequency leas of the base site, and a round trip time period for acknowledgments and corresponding retransmissions. The jitter buffer size may be further controlled by use of a supplemental channel to expedite the transmission of data and thereby fill up the jitter buffer more quickly and by reducing the waiting period for retransmission of the acknowledgmets, thereby reducing the round trip time period. |
