PREVENTING REESTABLISHMENT AT DESCENDANT NODES WITH NO ALTERNATIVE PATHS IN INTEGRATED ACCESS BACKHAUL - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17915893 titled 'PREVENTING REESTABLISHMENT AT DESCENDANT NODES WITH NO ALTERNATIVE PATHS IN INTEGRATED ACCESS BACKHAUL
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method, system, and apparatus for preventing reestablishment at descendant nodes with no alternative paths in Integrated Access Backhaul (IAB) networks.
- The method involves a network node communicating with descendant nodes over a backhaul network.
- The network node transmits an indication to the descendant network nodes, indicating a radio link failure.
- The network node receives at least one message in response to the indication, which provides information about alternative path availability of the descendant network nodes towards a third network node.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Integrated Access Backhaul (IAB) networks: The technology can be applied in IAB networks to prevent reestablishment at descendant nodes without alternative paths, improving network reliability and performance.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Radio link failures: The technology addresses the issue of radio link failures in IAB networks by providing a method to prevent reestablishment at descendant nodes without alternative paths.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved network reliability: By preventing reestablishment at descendant nodes without alternative paths, the technology enhances the reliability of IAB networks.
- Enhanced network performance: The method ensures that descendant nodes have alternative paths available, leading to improved network performance and reduced downtime.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method, system and apparatus are disclosed for preventing reestablishment at descendant nodes with no alternative paths in Integrated Access Backhaul (IAB) networks. In one embodiment, a method implemented in a network node configured to communicate with at least one descendant node over a backhaul network includes transmitting an indication to the at least one descendant network node in which the indication is associated with a radio link failure; and receiving at least one message in response to the indication, the at least one message being associated with an alternative path availability of the at least one descendant network node toward a third network node.
