In a communication device and communication method, channel quality information for first and the second communication protocols is calculated. Further, allocation information can be generated for the first and the second communication protocols based on the corresponding channel quality information. Sequence numbers of corresponding data frames to be transmitted by the communication device can be generated. Further, the data frames and corresponding sequence numbers can be allocated to the first and the second communication protocols based on the allocation information.
