Abstract: A method includes determining an estimate of a data packet path time from a first base station 13 to a user equipment (UE), and determining, based at least partially upon a communication received from a second base station 15, an estimate of a data packet path time from the first base station 13 via the second base station 15 to the user equipment (UE) 10. The method includes, based at least partially upon the determined estimates, selecting either the first base station 13 or the second base station 15 to transmit a packet data unit (DPU) (PDU) to the user equipment (UE) 10.
