In a new radio (NR) communication system, low latency and limited jitter are critical to support new use cases exploiting haptic feedback and other closed-loop feedback control applications. Therefore, mechanisms for delay control and delay alignment are important. The simplest approaches to mitigating delay jitter, using buffering techniques, come at the price of memory and increased delay. More recently, techniques using feedback of delays experienced have shown great promise for improved performance with low overhead. The scope of this article is to discuss and motivate recognition of the need for delay alignment in general.
