Webrtc delay-base-bwe代码分析(1): RateStatistics模块

RateStatistics这个类的作用为记录一个时间窗口内的速率值，并返回当前时间区域内的码率值。单独开一个文章主要是用来描述其用来记录速率值的桶，一开始看的比较迷糊。

class RateStatistics {
  // Counters are kept in buckets (circular buffer), with one bucket
  // per millisecond.
  // 每毫秒一个记录值。
  struct Bucket {
    size_t sum;      // Sum of all samples in this bucket.
    size_t samples;  // Number of samples in this bucket.
  };
  std::unique_ptr<Bucket[]> buckets_;

  // 统计总值，一个为总的传输字节数，一个为这个单位时间内，总的采样点数。
  // Total count recorded in buckets.
  size_t accumulated_count_;

  // The total number of samples in the buckets.
  size_t num_samples_;

  // 某个采样时间内的时间起点。包括时间值和索引值。
  // Oldest time recorded in buckets.
  int64_t oldest_time_;

  // Bucket index of oldest counter recorded in buckets.
  uint32_t old
