Abstract
An apparatus comprises means for performing, at a CU of a master node: receiving an individual PDU from one or more incoming PDUs, wherein each PDU is to be transmitted to a UE via one amongst respective paths towards at least one DU of the master node and at least one secondary node, the UE being in DC or MC with the master node and the at least one secondary node; collecting a respective data set for each of the paths; receiving, from a ML model inputting each data set, a respective estimated delay of transmission for each of the paths; selecting, from each of the paths, a path based on the estimated delay of transmission; and transmitting the PDU to the UE via the selected path.
