Abstract
In a communication system using a terminal connected to a packet network, the invention predicts a future communication state between terminals. This invention may also control congestion by delivering the packet according to the predicted future communication state. A receiving state monitor calculates a moving average of jitter and a packet loss rate based on a packet received by a packet receiver. A controller of a sending bit rate and an encoding rate obtains the moving average of jitter and the packet loss rate predicts a future communication state, and controls the sending bit rate and/or the encoding rate.
