METHOD FOR CONTROLING A SESSION BIT RATE, RECEIVER FOR RECEIVING PACKED SWITCHED MEDIA, SENDER FOR CODED SWITCHED MEDIA, AND, PACKAGE SWITCHED COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
The invention relates to a method for controlling a bit-rate of a session in a packet-switched communications system where multiple sessions are set-up via a shared resource. A current bit-rate of the session is compared to a bit-rate range valid for the session to determine a distance from the position of the current bit-rate to one of the end-points of the bit-rate range. The current bit-rate is then adapted differently depending on the distance to the selected end-point. By controlling the bit-rate of each session that is set-up via the shared resource for applications that provide delay-sensitive services to users in this way the method and corresponding system and sender-receiver arrangements have the effect that rate adaptations can be distributed among the applications so that users share responsibility for rate adaptations.
