Quality of experience (qoe)-aware transmission over multi-transport

A method comprising:

• receiving, by a processor, a request for transmitting a data packet from a source node to a destination node in a wireless communication network, the source node being connected to the destination node via a plurality of multi-transport access networks (MTANs);
• determining, by the processor, payload data of the data packet and n-tuple information associated with the data packet based on the received request;
• analyzing, by the processor, packet level metrics associated with the determined payload data of the data packet based on the determined n-tuple information;
• classifying, by the processor, the data packet into a latency class (LC) and a Quality of Service (QoS) class based on the analyzed packet level metrics;
• determining, by the processor, an appropriate multi-transport access network (MTAN) among the plurality of MTANs and an appropriate priority traffic class for transmitting the data packet to the destination node based on a set of parameters;
• establishing, by the processor, a multi-path (MP) backbone connection with the destination node using the determined appropriate MTAN and the appropriate priority traffic class;
• and
• transmitting, by the processor, the data packet to the destination node through the established MP backbone connection.

A system comprising:

• a plurality of web servers to communicate with a plurality of user equipment (UEs) using a wide area network (WAN) and multi-transport access networks (MTANs);
• a traffic routing device communicatively coupled to the plurality of web servers and the plurality of UEs, the traffic routing device being connected to the plurality of web servers using the WAN, and connected to the plurality of UEs using the MTANs, the traffic routing device is to:
• route a plurality of data packets between the plurality of UEs and the plurality of web servers, using MTANs and the WAN;
• and
• the plurality of UEs communicatively coupled to the plurality of web servers via the traffic routing device, the plurality of UEs is to exchange the plurality of data packets with the plurality of web servers via the traffic routing device.
