Abstract: The present disclosure provides techniques for transport mode selection based on MARC deployment. A network device receives information from one or more other network devices within a CG, where the CG is configured to operate using a MARC mode, and the information indicates a support of acting as a transport node over wired connections and a MARC transport role within the CG for each of the other network devices. The network device estimates a wired path between the network device and at least one of the other network device, and determines transit times required for communication over the wired paths and transit times required for communication over wireless paths. Considering the transit times for the wired and wireless paths and the MARC mode, the network device selects a transport mode, communicates the transport mode to the other network devices, and performs a network coordination operation using the transport mode.
