Abstract

The proposed technology generally relates to a method for controlling multi-point data transmission between a primary node () and a User Equipment, UE, via secondary nodes (). The method comprises the steps of obtaining (S) Round-Trip Time, RTT, values (T) between a primary node () and two or more secondary nodes (). The method further comprises determining (S) a time value relationship (α) between uplink and downlink for each of the obtained RTT values; determining (S) a first queue dwell time (T) in a first secondary node () of the two or more secondary nodes (); and determining (S) a second queue dwell time (T) in a second secondary node () of the two or more secondary nodes (), the second queue dwell time (T) being determined at least partly based on the RTT values (T), the time value relationship (α) and the determined first queue dwell time (T). The method further comprises initiating control (S) of the first and second queue dwell times for synchronized data arrival in the UE.
