MULTI-CONNECTIVITY COMMUNICATION

A method for multi-connectivity communication in an application layer of a communication network. The method includes generating a plurality of decision elements and repeating a first iterative process. An ith iteration of the first iterative process includes generating an ith transmit message set by executing an application, transmitting the ith transmit message set from a transmitter to a receiver, receiving an ith receive message set of a plurality of receive message sets, and updating the plurality of decision elements. The ith transmit message set is transmitted over a plurality of networks. The ith transmit message set is transmitted based on the plurality of decision elements. Each transmit message in the ith transmit message set is associated with at least one respective network of the plurality of networks. The plurality of decision elements are updated based on a jth receive message set in the plurality of receive message sets.
