Abstract
A multipath receiver includes: a reorder queue configured to queue data packets received over multiple paths; and a reorder queue controller configured to reorder the data packets in the reorder queue according to a reorder criterion. The reorder queue controller is configured to allow Multi-Access Protocol Data Unit (MA PDU) Sessions based on Access Traffic Steering, Switching, and Splitting (ATSSS). The reorder queue controller is configured to choose to activate a reordering of the data packets. The reorder queue controller is configured to negotiate the activation of the reordering of the data packets with peers of an MA PDU Session based on an ATSSS use case, wherein in case reordering is activated, the data packets are queued in a reorder queue. The reorder criterion is based on a sequence numbering of the data packets of the MA PDU Session based on the ATSSS use case.
