Method of dynamically transmitting data packets using RTP and RTCP protocols
First Claim
1. A method of transmitting data packets, in particular of real-time or near-real-time data over an Internet protocol (IP) network using a real-time protocol (RTP) for media data products and a real-time control protocol (RTCP) for control data packets, each protocol being allocated a fraction of the available transmission bandwidth comprising the steps of:
- measuring relevant characteristics of the network link, calculating from this measurement an optimized RTCP bandwidth and transmitting control data packets using the optimized RTCP bandwidth.
