Abstract
Dual connectivity operations described herein include splitting a PDU into at least first and second portions of data addressed to or from first and/or second network addresses of a wireless device respectively, and modifying a source/destination address of the second portion of data from the first network address to the second network address in the downlink direction, and from the second network address to the first network address in the uplink direction. Uniquely-marked bearers set up between relay access nodes and donor access nodes (and gateways associated therewith) enable transmission of portions of data to and from the different network addresses.
