Abstract:
To address the need for new techniques that are able to reduce delays in frame selection, a method such as that depicted in diagram of FIG. may be employed. A packet from one call leg active for a call is received () during a particular frame interval of the call. In response to receiving the packet, a determination () is made as to whether to make a frame selection decision for the frame interval. This determination is based upon the number of call legs active for the call and upon the number of call legs for which a packet has already been received. When () it is determined to make a frame selection decision, a packet is selected () and forwarded () without waiting for the end of the frame interval.
