Impact of bounded jitter on resource consumption in multi-hop networks

Jitter is, potentially, the largest source of degradation in the quality of voice in VoIP systems. This paper presents an analytical solution to the following question: How is jitter impacted by the number of hops that VoIP packets travel over and, if the end-to-end jitter were to be bounded to a predefined value, how would the resources in the network need to be scaled up as the number of hops increases? The paper also provides a way to compute the traffic handling capability of a multi-hop resource constrained network under a defined limit of end-to-end jitter.
