Abstract
A method and a device are provided for estimating the bandwidth available at the level of the IP layer for a stream between a source node and a destination node connected by a path made up of one or more links. The stream is transported by a heterogeneous telecommunications network that may include at least one radio segment over a portion of the path. The method includes: a receive step of the destination node receiving a single train of N packet frames, at a certain constant or variable send rate; a determination step of the destination node determining accumulated reception delay values; an identification step of the destination node identifying atypical jitter values among the successive packet transmission delays; and a utilization step of the destination node using a regression model applied to the accumulated reception delay values.
