Data burst size correction using pre-compensation or over-provisioning for media data communication

Abstract

An example device for exchanging media data includes a processing system implemented in circuitry and configured to: calculate a cumulative size of packets of a data burst received from a source device, the packets including media data; determine a signaled data burst size for the data burst; calculate a ratio between the cumulative size and the signaled size; and send data representative of the ratio to the source device. Another example device for exchanging media data includes a processing system implemented in circuitry and configured to: determine an initial data burst size value for a data burst including packets including media data; signal a signaled data burst size value for the data burst, the signaled data burst size value being larger than the initial data burst size value; and send the data burst including the signaled data burst size value to a destination device.
