  2. 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 ...

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. Quality of service - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quality_of_service

    Quality of service (QoS) is the description or measurement of the overall performance of a service, such as a telephony or computer network, or a cloud computing service, particularly the performance seen by the users of the network.

  6. Packet loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_loss

    Packet loss is either caused by errors in data transmission, typically across wireless networks, [1] [2] or network congestion. [3]: 36 Packet loss is measured as a percentage of packets lost with respect to packets sent. The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) detects packet loss and performs retransmissions to ensure reliable messaging.

  7. 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]

  8. Network congestion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_congestion

    Network congestion in data networking and queueing theory is the reduced quality of service that occurs when a network node or link is carrying more data than it can handle. . Typical effects include queueing delay, packet loss or the blocking of new connectio

  9. Network delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_delay

    Graphical depiction of contributions to network delay. Network delay is a design and performance characteristic of a telecommunications network.It specifies the latency for a bit of data to travel across the network from one communication endpoint to another.
