Abstract
In systems and method of determining a reordering timer in a wireless communication network, when it is determined that a packet reordering of a plurality of data packets meets a reordering threshold, a handover probability that the wireless device will be handed over to a second access node is estimated based on a first congestion metric of the first access node and a second congestion metric of the second access node. The plurality of data packets is examined to determine application requirements of an application of the wireless device. Based on the handover probability, the application requirements and the second congestion metric, a reordering timer is determined for use by the second access node.
