US Patent 7787496 Packet fragmentation techniques for multiple T-1 lines

Packets are broken into fragments when received by a radio network controller. The fragments are sized according to the network connection that are to receive the fragments. With a T-1 connection, the radio network controller attempts to create fragments of a packet with a maximum size of 1200 bytes. The radio network controller also attempts to send fragments of the same packet across the same network connection or T-1 line when multiple network connections or multiple T-1 lines exist.
