RTCP (Real-Time Control Protocol) is a companion protocol to RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) in multimedia communication. RTCP provides feedback on the quality of the data distribution, including packet loss, delay, and jitter, which RTP does not do. RTCP also helps in synchronization between multiple streams and participants in a session, a function that is not provided by RTP alone. Additionally, RTCP allows for the transmission of control information and metadata about the media streams being transmitted, which RTP does not handle.
