Systems and methods for lte-wan aggregation

A user device, comprising:

• circuitry configured to:
• provide, by an application on the user device, a plurality of internet protocol (IP) data packets;
• separate the plurality of IP data packets into a first set of IP data packets and a second set of IP data packets, according to channel conditions of a cellular network and a wireless local area network (WLAN);
• and
• transmit, to a transceiver node, the first set of IP data packets using a cellular network protocol of the cellular network and the second set of IP data packets using a WLAN protocol of the WLAN, causing the transceiver node to:
• receive the first set of IP data packets through the cellular network and the second set of IP data packets through the WLAN, and
• combine the first set of IP data packets transmitted using the cellular network protocol and the second set of IP data packets transmitted using the WLAN protocol into a combined set of IP data packets.

A transceiver node, comprising:

• circuitry configured to:
• receive, from a user device, a first set of interne protocol (IP) data packets through a cellular network;
• receive, from the user device, a second set of IP data packets through a wireless local area network (WLAN);
• combine the first set of IP data packets and the second set of IP data packets into a third set of IP data packets;
• and
• transmit the third set of IP data packets to an IP network.
