Techniques for Data Exchanges Among Multi-Radio Devices
Disclosed is a multi-radio communication apparatus capable of remote communication exchanges with a cloud based communication server. The communication server, in turn, may be communicable with one or more content or other customer servers to allow data exchanges between the multi-radio communication apparatus and virtually any cloud based server. The multi-radio communication apparatus may comprise processors, data storage components, a plurality of RF transceivers and corresponding antennas, and logic, at least a portion of which is implemented in circuitry. The logic may implement a mesh module configured to communicate with other apparatuses directly using a dedicated one of the plurality of RF transceivers. The logic may further implement a caching module configured to store data to be exchanged with a communication server at a later date. The logic may further implement a bonding module configured to: (i) receive multiple identical IP data streams via the plurality of RF transceivers; and (ii) send multiple identical IP data streams via the plurality of RF transceivers to the same destination.
