Summary from IETF-66 and 67:
Set a LONG Loss threshold
Distinguish between Long Finite Delay and Loss
Avoid truncated distributions
Delay of Lost Packets is UNDEFINED
Maintain orthogonality – avoid double-counting defects
Use conditional distributions and compute statistics
Report BOTH Loss and Delay
Report BOTH the Sample Mean and Median.
Comparison of the Mean and Median is informative
Means may be combined over time and space (when applicable)
Means come with a weighting function for each sample if needed, the sample Size, and Loss simply reduces the sample size
Means are more Robust to a single wonky measurement when the sample size is Large
Move the Industry Away from “Average Jitter”
Use the 99.9%-ile minus minimum PDV
Portray this as a Delay Variation “Pseudo-Range”
