Splitting backhaul traffic over multiple satellites

A method comprising:

• establishing multiple concurrent satellite network connections, the satellite networking connections comprising (i) a first satellite network connection involving a first satellite gateway in a first geographic region, and (ii) a second satellite network connection involving a second satellite gateway located in a second geographic region;
• communicating with one or more wireless base stations to send traffic to and receive traffic from the one or more wireless base stations;
• and
• splitting backhaul communication among the multiple concurrent satellite network connections to route different categories of traffic for the one or more wireless base stations over different satellite network connections, including (i) routing traffic that is in a first category to the first satellite network connection, and (ii) routing traffic that is in a second category to the second satellite network connection.

One or more non-transitory machine-readable media storing instructions that are operable, when executed by one or more processors of one or more communication devices, to cause the one or more communication devices to perform operations comprising:

• establishing multiple concurrent satellite network connections, the satellite networking connections comprising (i) a first satellite network connection involving a first satellite gateway in a first geographic region, and (ii) a second satellite network connection involving a second satellite gateway located in a second geographic region;
• communicating with one or more wireless base stations to send traffic to and receive traffic from the one or more wireless base stations;
• and
• splitting backhaul communication among the multiple concurrent satellite network connections to route different categories of traffic for the one or more wireless base stations over different satellite network connections, including (i) routing traffic that is in a first category to the first satellite network connection, and (ii) routing traffic that is in a second category to the second satellite network connection.
