HANDOVER COMMAND DELIVERY VIA A TARGET PATH IN AN INTEGRATED ACCESS AND BACKHAUL CONFIGURATION: abstract simplified (18325643)

The present disclosure is related to wireless communication and specifically focuses on an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node. The IAB node receives an indication from a first IAB donor centralized unit (CU) through a first parent distributed unit (DU) to establish a connection with a second parent DU associated with a second IAB donor CU. The IAB node establishes this first connection with the second parent DU and also establishes a second connection with the first IAB donor CU through the second parent DU. These two connections form a target path between the IAB node and the first IAB donor CU. The disclosure provides various other aspects related to this wireless communication system.
