Proxy apparatus for supporting multi-access connection and operation method therefor

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to 5G or 6G communication systems for supporting higher data transmission rates than 4G communication systems such as Long-Term Evolution (LTE). According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a proxy device for supporting a multi-access connection may generate a first connection between a client and the proxy device, and a second connection between the proxy device and a server, receive first data packets from the client via at least one subflow constituting the first connection, obtain, based on at least one piece of subflow identification information included in a header of the first data packets, at least one piece of sequence identification information corresponding to the at least one piece of subflow identification information, generate a second data packet consisting of a header including the at least one piece of sequence identification information, and a payload of the first data packets, and transmit the second data packet to the server via the second connection.
