Abstract

A method and arrangement for employing media layer adaptation in a wireless communication of media in data packets from a sending node to a receiving node, by determining a fitting frame aggregation scheme in an effective and accurate manner. An arrival time AT and generation time GT are monitored for packets when received at the packet receiving node. A difference ATdiff in the arrival time of consecutive packets and a difference GTdiff in the generation time of the packets, are calculated. Then, an inter-arrival measure IA is calculated as the deviation between the arrival time difference ATdiff and generation time difference GTdiff. When the inter-arrival jitter exceeds a preset threshold (Th), a frame aggregation scheme is determined based on the calculated inter-arrival jitter IA and applied in the packet communication.
