  • Patent number: 11873005
    Abstract: Devices, system, and method of vehicular multiple-link wireless communication. A vehicular communication bonding unit creates a bonded wireless communication connection that transports data-packets of a source data-stream from a remote server to a vehicular transceiver, by transporting the data-packets over at least two wireless communication links. The vehicular communication bonding unit utilizes a vehicular cellular transceiver to receive a first batch of the data-packets over a first cellular communication link that connects between the vehicular cellular transceiver and the remote server. The vehicular communication bonding unit further utilizes least one end-user device, of an occupant of a vehicle, to receive a second batch of the data-packets of the particular data-stream, over a second cellular communication link that connects between the end-user device and the remote server.

  • Patent number: 11088947
    Abstract: Device, system, and method of pre-processing and data delivery for multi-link communications and for media content. A method for transporting a video content from a content delivery device to a recipient device, includes: inequitably distributing packets of the video content, for transmission across two or more transmitters that transport data to the recipient device over two, different, one-to-one communication links; wherein the distributing of the packets is performed by selecting and applying a particular Packet Distribution Scheme out of a plurality of different pre-stored Packet Distribution Schemes. The Packet Distribution Scheme is selected based on its similarity to actual or predicted performance characteristics of the available transmitters. Optionally, multiple encoded-versions of the video content are prepared in advance, and are stored together with a record indicating which encoded-version should be used in conjunction with which Packet Distribution Scheme.

  • Patent number: 10986029
    Abstract: Device, system, and method of data transport with selective utilization of a single link or multiple links. An apparatus includes, or is associated with, multiple transmitters. A link bonding management unit determines with regard to a data-flow that is intended for transmission to a remote recipient, whether to transmit the data-flow via a single communication link over a single transmitter of the apparatus, or conversely, to transmit the data-flow via two or more communication links serviced by two or more, respective, transmitters of the apparatus. Additionally or alternatively, the allocation of packets among transmitters that participate in a virtual bonded transmission, is modified based on one or more performance characteristics.
