Estimation of a packet loss rate in a network segment on the uplink

A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• receiving an uplink packet loss indication that includes information indicating packet loss on a network segment from the UE to a network node;
• receiving an end-to-end packet loss indication that includes information indicating end-to-end packet loss from the UE to an endpoint;
• and
• transmitting a set of packets for reception by the endpoint, a quantity of packets in the set of packets being based at least in part on a packet loss rate from the network node to the endpoint, that is based at least in part on the uplink packet loss indication and the end-to-end packet loss indication.

An apparatus for wireless communication, the apparatus comprising:

• means for receiving an uplink packet loss indication that includes information indicating packet loss on a network segment from the apparatus to a network node;
• means for receiving an end-to-end packet loss indication that includes information indicating end-to-end packet loss from the apparatus to an endpoint;
• and
• means for transmitting a set of packets for reception by the endpoint, a quantity of packets in the set of packets being based at least in part on a packet loss rate from the network node to the endpoint, that is based at least in part on the uplink packet loss indication and the end-to-end packet loss indication.
