Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed relating to concurrent wireless connectivity. In some embodiments, a base station apparatus includes one or more processing elements and one or more memories having program instructions stored thereon that are executable by the one or more processing elements to perform the following operations. In some embodiments, the operations include communicating with a mobile device as a master base station during a time interval in which the mobile device is also assigned radio resources by a first secondary base station. In some embodiments, the operations include requesting that a second secondary base station allocate radio resources for the mobile device during the time interval, without releasing the first secondary base station, such that radio resources of both the first and second secondary base stations are allocated to the mobile device during the time interval.
