Multipath transmission control protocol proxy use in a cellular network

摘要

This disclosure relates to techniques for providing a multipath transmission control protocol proxy in a cellular network. A wireless device may establish a wireless link with a cellular network. The wireless device may provide an indication that the wireless device is multipath transmission control protocol (MPTCP) capable to a core network entity of the cellular network. The wireless device may receive MPTCP proxy information for a MPTCP proxy comprised in the cellular network from the core network entity. The MPTCP proxy information may include MPTCP server IP address and port information. The wireless device may establish a first MPTCP flow with the MPTCP proxy comprised in the cellular network via the wireless link.
