ABSTRACT:
The invention is a system and method to measure network bandwidth. A source computer sends sets of packet pairs to a destination computer. Each set of packet pairs is centered around a different packet size. The destination computer times each packet pair to determine the time delta between the packets in the packet pair. The time deltas are then organized and analyzed to determine the network bandwidth.
