A high precision approach of network delay measurement based on general PC. Journal of Software, 2006,17(2):275−284. /1000-9825/17/275.htm Abstract: Delay is the foundation for accurately measuring network performance metrics such as delay jitter, bandwidth, etc. While the delay measurement methods currently used have poor precision, for there exist clock errors and location errors. In this paper, an improved method for delay measurement is proposed. It replaces system clock with T SC (time stamp counter) register as time-stamping to eliminate clock errors, and it removes the
