US 2021/0067415 A1 · DATA COMMUNICATION VIA COMMUNICATION LINKS

Abstract

A system for off-board communication includes data storage configured to store one or more data objects. A data object includes data of an application. The data object indicates a data object priority and one or more acceptable communication links associated with the application. The system also includes one or more processors configured to retrieve communication link status from a memory. The communication link status indicates available communication links with available bandwidth. The processors are also configured to retrieve the data object from the data storage based on the data object priority and acceptable communication links of the data object including the available communication links. The processors are further configured to generate, based on the available bandwidth of the available communication links, sub-data objects of the data object. The processors are also configured to initiate concurrent transmission of the sub-data objects via the available communication links.

Claims21

Dependent claims

A system for communication comprising:

data storage configured to store a data object including data of an application, wherein the data object indicates a data object priority and one or more acceptable communication links associated with the application, and wherein the data object priority is based on an application priority of the application;
and
one or more processors configured to:
retrieve, from a memory, communication link status of a plurality of communication links, the communication link status indicating a plurality of available communication links with available bandwidth;
retrieve the data object from the data storage based on the data object priority and acceptable communication links of the data object including the plurality of available communication links;
generate, based on the available bandwidth of the plurality of available communication links, sub-data objects of the data object;
and
initiate concurrent transmission of the sub-data objects via the plurality of available communication links.

5 more elements

A method of communication comprising:

retrieving, at a device from a memory, communication link status of a plurality of communication links, the communication link status indicating a plurality of available communication links with available bandwidth;
retrieving, at the device from a data storage, a data object based on a data object priority of the data object and acceptable communication links indicated by the data object including the plurality of available communication links, wherein the data object includes data of an application, wherein the acceptable communication links are associated with the application, and wherein the data object priority is based on an application priority of the application;
generating, based on the available bandwidth of the plurality of available communication links, sub-data objects of the data object;
and
initiating concurrent transmission of the sub-data objects via the plurality of available communication links.

2 more elements

A computer-readable storage device storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

retrieving, from a memory, communication link status of a plurality of communication links, the communication link status indicating a plurality of available communication links with available bandwidth;
retrieving a data object from a data storage based on a data object priority of the data object and acceptable communication links of the data object including the plurality of available communication links, the data object including data of an application, wherein the acceptable communication links of the data object are associated with the application, and wherein the data object priority is based on an application priority of the application;
generating, based on the available bandwidth of the plurality of available communication links, sub-data objects of the data object;
and
initiating concurrent transmission of the sub-data objects via the plurality of available communication links.
