Abstract

A wireless communication device includes at least two transceivers and a processor. A respectively selected portion of a downlink and uplink data flow signals is transmitted to and received from corresponding different wireless networks. The uplink and downlink data flow signals comprise data flows between a client entity and an Internet-Protocol-based services application. In one embodiment, the selected portions of the uplink and downlink are based on consecutively arranged packets communicated over respectively different wireless networks. In another embodiment, the selected portions of the uplink and downlink are based on relative packet sizes.
