Abstract:
Embodiments of apparatuses and methods for traffic prediction and bandwidth aggregation are described. In various embodiments, an apparatus may include a first network interface and a second network interface with support of a multipath transport protocol. The apparatus may further include a control module to determine whether to aggregate bandwidth of the first and second network interfaces under a same transport layer connection, using the multipath transport protocol, based at least in part on a traffic prediction of the first network interface. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Claim (Index 16):
The method of  claim 8 , further comprising:\n deactivating the second network interface when a throughput of the second network interface is below a predetermined threshold; and adding a back off time to a timer to keep the second network interface deactivated for at least the back off time.
