Jitteren
Jitteren refers to a phenomenon characterized by irregular, unpredictable variations in timing or signal transmission, commonly observed in digital communications, audio processing, and video systems. The term originates from the Dutch word "jitter," which describes the instability or "shaking" of a signal, and is widely used in technical contexts to denote timing inconsistencies.
In digital audio and video, jitter occurs when the timing of data packets or clock signals deviates
Network jitter is particularly relevant in real-time applications like VoIP (Voice over IP) and online gaming,
In telecommunications, jitter is quantified as the variation in the arrival time of data packets relative to
While jitter is typically an unwanted artifact, it can sometimes be intentionally introduced in creative contexts,
