网络抖动(jitter)的计算

嗯，最近在做一些很古老的Congestion Control的工作，用UDP设计一套仿照TCP AIMD的机制，最重要的几点就在于： 1. 如何判断拥塞发生 2. 用什么样的策略来调整窗口（对UDP来说是sending rate） 对于1来说，使用两个threshold， 一个就是jitter，另一个收到两个feedback之间的时间差。这里转载两篇节选的关于jitter计算的文章。一篇英文，是Stanford一个research center在1998年做的一些实验，叹一句，人家做的果然是很早啊。 Website: http://www.slac.stanford.edu/comp/net/wan-mon/tutorial.html Jitter, see also  Jitter,The short term variability or "jitter" of the response time is very important for real-time applications such as telephony. Web browsing and mail are fairly resistent to jitter, but any kind of streaming media (voice, video, music) is quite suceptible to jitter. Jitter is a symptom that there is congestion, or not enough bandwidt to handle the traffic.  The jitter specifies the length of the VoIP  codec de-jitter buffer  to prevent over- or under-flow. An objective could be to specify that say 95% of packet delay variations should be within the interval [-30msec, +30msec]. The ITU has a Proposed Method for Measuring Packet Delay Variation. This requires in
