*This abstract for appeared for patent application  number 18191500 Titled 'INTEGRATED ACCESS AND BACKHAUL TIMING MODE SIGNALING'

==Simplified Explanation==

This abstract describes a communication system, specifically for 5G or 6G, that aims to support faster data transmission rates. It introduces a method for a first node in this wireless communication system. The method involves the first node receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message from a second node, which includes information about a list of slots. The first node also receives a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) from the second node, which indicates a timing mode to be applied to at least one slot in the list. Based on the MAC CE, the first node identifies the corresponding timing mode for the slot(s).


==Original Abstract Submitted==

The disclosure relates to a 5 Generation (5G) or 6 Generation (6G) communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A method for a first node in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving, from a second node, a radio resource control (RRC) message including information on a list of slots, receiving, from the second node, a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) indicating at least one timing mode to be applied to at least one slot in the list of slots, and identifying, based on the MAC CE, the at least one timing mode corresponding to the at least one slot.
