bytesSent(bits/s)

outbound-rtpoutboundaudiovideo

The bitrate of the outgoing media stream.

Description

Real number; in bits per second

The bitrate of the outgoing media stream.

This is calculated by converting the delta of bytesSent to bits (by multiplying them by 8) and then dividing the result by the duration of that delta.

Notes

  • bytesSent offers the accumulation of bytes. Here, we are interested in the bytes that were sent since the previous measurement of the metric
  • For voice codecs, we expect the resulting bitrate to fit within the configuration of that codec. For video codecs, we expect the resulting bitrate to fluctuate based on the video's content, network conditions, CPU performance, etc.
