First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- monitoring at least one parameter indicative of conversational dynamics for a communication session between at least a first and second communication session participant using a first and second communication device, respectively; and
adjusting a capacity of a jitter buffer used in the communication session based on the monitored at least one parameter.

Abstract
Methods, devices, and systems for balancing latency and voice quality during a communication session are provided. More specifically, mechanisms for monitoring parameters indicative of conversational dynamics and adjusting jitter buffer size based thereon are described. This allows latency to increase if the conversation is not highly interactive and decrease if a more interactive conversation is desired.
