COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND COMMUNICATION METHOD Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC H04W24/00 

FIELD: communications.

SUBSTANCE: first network device receives the packet of the first subservice through the first service interface in the primary network element and receives the packet of the second subservice through the second service interface in the secondary network element, where the first primary network element and the first secondary network element are both included in the first network device. The first network device obtains the first service packet group and the second service packet group based on the first subservice packet and the second subservice packet. The first network device transmits the first service packet group through the first air interface in the first primary network element and transmits the second service packet group through the second air interface in the first secondary network element.

EFFECT: increased degree of using the radio interface bandwidth in a microwave device and the ability to successfully transmit a service packet in the event of a hardware failure in the primary network element of a microwave device.
