1. A virtual broadband transmitting unit for uploading of media content from a remote location, comprising:
- a multiplicity of modem managers, each associated with at least one of a multiplicity of wireless communication modems;
a stream processor configured to receive a live media datastream at the remote location;
generate via a data packet generator a multiplicity of packets for real-time live uploading in concert via said multiplicity of wireless communication modems; and
control via a transmission manager the upload in concert of said multiplicity of packets through said multiplicity of modems, by inequitably distributing said multiplicity of packets among said multiplicity of wireless communication modems for real-time uploading per a rate optimal for said wireless communication modems under the current prevailing conditions and based on at least one of;
upload channel quality of said wireless communication modems, and actual performance of said wireless communication modems;
wherein at least one of said wireless communication modems is associated with at least one wireless communication network accessible from said remote location.

Abstract
A transmission apparatus includes a plurality of modems, which are configured to communicate via respective wireless communication channels and includes at least first and second modems configured to communicate respectively over separate first and second wireless communication networks. The transmission apparatus also includes a stream processor, which is configured to receive and process an incoming media stream so as to provide multiple upload streams for transmission by different ones of the modems, including first and second upload streams for transmission by the first and second modems, respectively.

17. A method for uploading of content at a remote location, the method implementable by a virtual broadband transmitting unit, the method comprising:
-
organizing a live media transmission generated at the remote location into data packets for real-time live uploading in concert via a multiplicity of wireless communication modems, each associated with at least one wireless communication network; and uploading in real time said data packets of said live media transmission through a one or more of said wireless communication modems associated with those of said at least one wireless communication network accessible from said remote location by inequitably distributing said multiplicity of data packets among said multiplicity of wireless communication modems for real-time uploading per a rate optimal for said wireless communication modems under the current prevailing conditions based on at least one of;
upload channel quality of said wireless communication modems, and actual performance of said wireless communication modems. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
