packetsSent/s

Average number of RTP packets sent per second for this SSRC, as reported by the remote peer.

Description

Real number

The average number of RTP packets sent per second for this SSRC, as reported by the remote peer through its RTCP Sender Report. This includes retransmissions.

This is the sending rate of the remote peer for the media stream we are receiving. For the matching locally observed reception rate see inbound-rtp.packetsReceived/s.

A good explanation on how these packets are accumulated can be found in remote-outbound-rtp.packetsSent.

Notes

  • remote-outbound-rtp.packetsSent offers the accumulation of packets. Here, we are interested in the packets that were sent since the previous measurement of the metric
  • This value comes from RTCP Sender Reports, so it is only as frequent and as accurate as the remote peer's reporting
