Abstract
In Multipath Transport Layer Protocol (MPTCP) data transmission, data packets are sent from a transmitter to a receiver over at least two data paths, for example using a cellular data connection and a wireless network data connection. An apparatus located at a common point in the data paths is used to monitor the characteristics of any data flows in a MPTCP connection and to manipulate the packet characteristics of the data flows to ensure the MPTCP performance matches a predetermined data distribution target.
