Abstract
Communication apparatus (22) includes an interface (41) to a plurality of wireless modems (42) and bonding circuitry (39), which is configured to receive multiple virtual identities in the apparatus, to load respective ones of the received virtual identities into one or more of the wireless modems, and to communicate over the air by simultaneously transmitting or receiving a data stream over at least the two or more of the wireless modems. Systems and methods for such communication are provided, as well.
