A method for communication. The method includes receiving or determining an input data stream; propagating the input data stream through a plurality of consecutive input processing stages; and transmitting a plurality of output data streams provided at the output section via a plurality of communication channels.

Methods and apparatuses for communication

A method for the adaptive selection of a scheduling scheme for a data packet transmission in a multipath communication system. The method includes determining at least two transmission path parameters for each transmission path of at least two transmission paths of two or more transmission paths for a multiplicity of data packets, the multiplicity of data packets being transmitted via the two or more transmission paths; determining a correlation between at least one transmission path parameter of at least two transmission path parameters of a transmission path and a corresponding transmission path parameter of at least two transmission path parameters of one or more other transmission paths from the two or more transmission paths for the multiplicity of data packets; and adaptive selection of a scheduling scheme for a data packet transmission via the two or more transmission paths based on the determined transmission path parameters and the correlation.

Adaptive multipath scheduler

A method for operating a first network device of a communications network, wherein the method comprises: determining or receiving, by means of an ingress interface, an ingress data stream comprising payload data to be transmitted towards a second network device; determining or receiving, by means of a correlation observer, at least one correlation value for a plurality of communication paths between the first network device and the second network device, wherein each of the plurality of communication paths comprises a different one of a plurality of physical channels; determining, by means of a multi-connectivity controller, a plurality of egress data streams in dependence on the at least one correlation value and in dependence on the ingress data stream; and transmitting, via a respective one of a plurality of egress queues, wherein each egress data stream is associated with a different one of the plurality of paths.

Method for operating a first network device, first network device, and method for operating a communications network

A radio module (RM) for a radio terminal (T) is provided, wherein the radio module (RM) comprises: a transmitter (Tx) configured to transmit within a time period data either on a first radio channel (RCH) of a first radio communications network according to a first operating mode or on a second radio channel (RCH) of a second radio communications network according to a second operating mode; and a controller (CTRL) being configured to schedule a selection of one of the operating modes of the transmitter (Tx), wherein the selection comprises switching of at least one parameter of the transmitter (Tx) according to the selected operating mode.
