Abstract:
An appliance for providing compression technique for jitter sensitive application through multiple network links is described. The appliance has one or more processors and includes a link quality estimator, a jitterless compressor, and a link switcher. The link quality estimator is configured to measure latency over a first link and a second link, wherein the second link has a longer latency than the first link. The jitterless compressor is configured to accumulate packets for a time period associated with a difference in latency between the second link and the first link, and determine a number of packets based on a packet size associated with the accumulated packets and bandwidth of the first link. The link switcher is configured to acquire the determined number of packets, wherein the determined number of packets have been compressed, transmit a first packet over the second link, and transmit the acquired number of packets over the first link.
