Abstract
Techniques for efficient bandwidth estimation are described herein. In some cases, the bandwidth estimation techniques disclosed herein may, for example, calculate bandwidth based on multiple packet groups transmitted at different times. Additionally, in some cases, the bandwidth estimation techniques disclosed herein may, for example, capture cross traffic and its effects on bandwidth. Furthermore, in some cases, the bandwidth estimation techniques disclosed herein may, for example, employ dynamic self-correcting techniques for more reliable estimates.
