I have a capture packet of RTCP received report. I attached the screenshot. My question is how to measure the RTT using the Last Sending report (LSR), Delay since last sending report (DLSR) and Arrival time. I know the formula and way to calculate which is, RTT= A(arrival time) - LSR - DLSR

  • LSR= 1257767217 sec
  • DLSR = 1416160922 (21608900 milliseconds)

But now my confusion is what is the arrival time in conversion which is related to the LSR and DLSR time. Because LSR is the time of the last Sending report which is the middle 32 bits of the NTP timestamps. But now I have Arrival Time: Nov 18, 2022 15:55:13.464735796 CET, what should be do to measure the RTT. please guide.

Could you make available a PCAP with the relevant RTCP frames?

Place the file on a public share and then add a link to the file by editing your question.
