Abstract :
A direct method of measuring delay and estimating the mean delay is described. The accuracy possible is examined theoretically. A method for minimizing the variance of the estimated mean delay is derived. Methods of estimating the entire probability distribution of the measured delay are discussed and statistically analyzed.
