Online computer networks calculator helps to calculate round trip time (RTT) of signal length ping time in sender and receiver signals. Whenever a new value for the current RTT is measured, it is averaged into a smoothed RTT depending on the last measured value.
Formula:
RTT = (ฮฑ ยท Old_RTT) + ((1 โ ฮฑ) ยท New Round Trip Sample)
where,a is known as the smoothing factor and it determines how much weight the new measurement carries and the value of a lies between 0.8 and 0.9.
If a = 0, we simply use the new value,
If a = 1, we ignore the new value,
RTT = Round Trip Time
