{{APIRef("WebRTC")}}

The jitter property of the {{domxref("RTCRemoteInboundRtpStreamStats")}} dictionary returns the {{glossary("Jitter", "packet jitter")}} for the synchronization source (SSRC) as measured by the remote endpoint.

High packet jitter values indicate that packet arrival rates vary significantly, which may degrade video, audio, and other real-time communications over WebRTC.

Value

Packet jitter, in seconds.

The value is calculated using the "interarrival jitter" algorithm described in {{RFC("3550", "", "6.4.1")}}.
