What is frame delay variation?

The definition of Frame Delay Variation (FDV) is the absolute value of the difference between the Forwarding Delay of two consecutive received packets belonging to the same stream. Other notations commonly used are Packet Delay Variation, or simply ”Jitter”.

What is the variation in delay of packets called?

In computer networking, packet delay variation (PDV) is the difference in end-to-end one-way delay between selected packets in a flow with any lost packets being ignored. The effect is sometimes referred to as packet jitter, although the definition is an imprecise fit.

How do you calculate packet delay?

Frame Serialization Time = S/R. Link Media Delay = D/p. Queueing Delay = Q / R.

Is the variation in delay for packets belonging to the same flow?

ANSWER: Delay is defined as the end to end time required for the signal to travel from transmitter to receiver and Jitter is defined as the variation of delay for packets belonging to the same flow.
