Wireless multiple connections and method thereof

摘要

The present invention provides a method for wireless transmission of a singlepacket flow from a network element. The method comprises establishing a first logical connection to a first wireless terminal for transmission of said single packet flow, determining at least one traffic parameter, establishing at least a second logical connection to the wireless terminal depending on said traffic parameter, for transmission of said single packet flow and transmitting the single packet flow using at least one of the first and second logical connections to the wireless terminal, selecting one of the first and second logical connections for transmission of the single packet flow to a plurality of wireless terminals including the first wireless terminal. A first plurality of logical connections including the first logical connection are a plurality of unicast connections for transmission to a plurality of wireless terminals including the first wireless terminal, wherein the second logical connection is a multicast connection for transmission to the plurality of wireless terminals including the first wireless terminal and wherein the at least one traffic parameter is a number of the plurality of wireless terminals.
