Abstract
A system and process for performing an exponentially weighted moving average on streaming data to establish a moving average bit rate of data units is presented. In general, the system or process computes, on a unit-by-unit basis, the product of the moving average bit rate computed for a data unit immediately prior to a unit under consideration and a first fractional weighting factor, added to the product of the instantaneous bit rate of the data unit under consideration and a second fractional weighting factor, wherein at least one fractional weighting factor is not a constant but instead based on the time between data units.
