Talk:Packet delay variation

Merge
Apparently Packet Delay Variation and Delay jitter are synonymous; the later article even states this explicitly. Wikipedia articles are on subjects, not the terms used to name those subjects, so I would say they should be merged. I'd say this article (PDV) is the better proper article name, as the term is more precise. Delay jitter can be a redirect to this one. Comments?

I agree, but then I wrote Packet Delay Variation basing it on Delay jitter! Aarghdvaark (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 22:23, 24 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Unimportant note: Jitter (disambiguation) links to both articles; if they're merged, one of the links should be removed. Hairy Dude (talk) 19:23, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Instantaneous packet delay variation
I find that paragraph is quite misleading. The suppose the exact description should be the difference between successive delay measured. Also the example is an example of metric that use a particular reference, not successive delay. I am also quite confused with IPDV, of which there are many interpretations: Instantaneous packet delay variation, Inter-packet delay variation. Well, there seems no harmonized meanings!? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.140.90.91 (talk) 05:52, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

PDV Diagrams
Hi, I'm pretty new to Wikipedia so I hope this is the right place to ask.

I have two questions. Both are around my contribution for a section on PDV diagrams.

The first is: I wanted to upload two cpdv diagrams I had generated myself (png format) but Wikipedia did not let me, citing copy right check stuff. Does anyone know how to handle this?

The second is: I created an open source (GNU GPL v3+ licensed) tool to create PDV diagrams from pcaps with several example diagrams in its github page. Would it okay to link this here? I want to spare others to have to rewrite such tools again and again, and most network researches might read this article here sooner or later on their journey when they are about to need it. And it contains nice example diagrams
