Latency, which is measured using a Ping command, represents the delay that a message/packet will have in traveling from source to destination. A decrease in amplitude as a signal propagates through a transmission medium is called attenuation. Throughput, which is the quantity of work per unit of time, is measured in bytes per second. Delay distortion represents delay in transmission because the rate of propagation of a signal along a transmission line varies with the frequency.
