Abstract
A method is provided to compensate for differential delay among a plurality of paths between first and second nodes in a network. The method may involve measuring delay for each of the plurality of paths for a plurality of sub-flows transmitted between the first node and the second node on respective paths of the plurality of paths. The plurality of sub-flows are obtained by splitting a traffic flow. The method involves determining delay differences among the delay for each of the plurality of paths, and adjusting, based on the delay differences, a queue delay associated with a respective flow of the plurality of sub-flows on one or more of the plurality of paths to achieve a path delay that is equal to a target path delay for each of the plurality of paths.
