  2. Jitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jitter

    Jitter period is the interval between two times of maximum effect (or minimum effect) of a signal characteristic that varies regularly with time. Jitter frequency, the more commonly quoted figure, is its inverse. ITU-T G.810 classifies deviation lower frequencies below 10 Hz as wander and higher frequencies at or above 10 Hz as jitter. [2]

  3. Bufferbloat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bufferbloat

    Bufferbloat can also cause packet delay variation (also known as jitter), as well as reduce the overall network throughput. When a router or switch is configured to use excessively large buffers, even very high-speed networks can become practically unusable for many interactive applications like voice over IP (VoIP), audio streaming , online ...

  4. Network performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_performance

    Jitter is the undesired deviation from true periodicity of an assumed periodic signal in electronics and telecommunications, often in relation to a reference clock source. Jitter may be observed in characteristics such as the frequency of successive pulses, the signal amplitude , or phase of periodic signals.

  5. Satellite Internet access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_Internet_access

    How satellite internet works. Satellite Internet generally relies on three primary components: a satellite – historically in geostationary orbit (or GEO) but now increasingly in Low Earth orbit (LEO) or Medium Earth orbit MEO) [24] – a number of ground stations known as gateways that relay Internet data to and from the satellite via radio waves (), and further ground stations to serve each ...

  6. Packet delay variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_delay_variation

    Instantaneous packet delay variation is the difference between successive packets—here RFC 3393 does specify the selection criteria—and this is usually what is loosely termed "jitter", although jitter is also sometimes the term used for the variance of the packet delay. As an example, say packets are transmitted every 20 ms.

  7. Measuring network throughput - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measuring_network_throughput

    This is due to the effect of overheads which are used to format the data in an agreed manner so that both ends of a connection have a consistent view of the data. There are at least two issues that aren't immediately obvious for transmitting compressed files: The throughput of the network itself isn't improved by compression.

  8. Explicit Congestion Notification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explicit_Congestion...

    As expected, ECN reduces the number of packets dropped by a TCP connection, which, by avoiding a retransmission, reduces latency and especially jitter. This effect is most drastic when the TCP connection has a single outstanding segment, [9] when it is able to avoid an RTO timeout; this is often the case for interactive connections, such as ...

  9. Network congestion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_congestion

    Connection points between a local area network and a wide area network are common choke points. When a network is in this condition, it settles into a stable state where traffic demand is high but little useful throughput is available, during which packet delay and loss occur and quality of service is extremely poor.
