Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0041527A2] A flexible mechanism employing timers within the gateways (300) to facilitate efficient multiplexing. Timers (340, 342, 344) are provided, wherein their value can be adjusted on a dynamic basis depending on factors such as network congestion that impact end-to-end delay. The extraction of data from the buffers (330, 332, 334) is triggered when either the timer (370) expires or when the accumulated data reaches a certain size. There are two ways one could set the timer values. In the first case, the network operator chooses the value based on the known approximation of end-to-end delay. In the second case, the multiplexing controller (350) has the capability to extract the network delay information from the RTCP reports.
