Abstract
A communication system comprises an access point (203) communicating via a directional beam and a first and second wireless modem (111, 703) for establishing a first and respectively second mm wave radio communication link to the first access point (203). The first and second wireless modems (111, 703) are located on a vehicle (103) and employ electronically steerable beamforming directional antennas having a first main beams for establishing the radio communication links. A scheduler (801) schedules data of the communication over the first mm wave radio communication link and the second mm wave radio communication link in dependence on a link quality of at least one of the first mm wave radio communication link and the second mm wave radio communication link. The main beams may be formed in substantially the same direction.
