Method and system for determining an estimate of a transmission time of a packet

摘要

A method and apparatus for determining the transmission time of packets of information in a communication system includes a temporal offset processor (330) which receives transmission delay information from a delay analyzer (315) and soft handoff state information from a control processor (320). This information is used to determine a temporal offset for packets of information. The temporal offset is used by a network arbiter (350) to determine when the associated packet should be transferred in time.
