Abstract
The digital data packets received contain data describing successive time segments of a signal stream to be restored, for example audio. Elements obtained from the packets received are recorded in a buffer memory organized in first-in first-out mode. A burst of packets fulfilling a certain burst size condition is detected a priori, on the basis of a reception delay evaluated in response to the reception of a first packet of the burst. The content of the buffer memory is controlled by accounting for the detection of the burst fulfilling the size condition.
