METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR CONDITIONAL RECONFIGURATION IN INTEGRATED ACCESS AND BACKHAUL (IAB) - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18032738 titled 'METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR CONDITIONAL RECONFIGURATION IN INTEGRATED ACCESS AND BACKHAUL (IAB)
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application is about methods and apparatus for a mobility action in IAB (Integrated Access and Backhaul) in wireless communication networks. - The method involves a Wireless Transmit/Receive Unit (WTRU) determining traffic load information associated with a parent node. - The WTRU also measures the received power of candidate parent nodes. - Based on the measured received power, a candidate parent node is selected. - A mobility action is then performed to connect to the selected candidate parent node, taking into account the determined traffic load information. - Finally, a message is transmitted to a child node, indicating the selected candidate parent node.
Original Abstract Submitted
The disclosure pertains to methods and apparatus for a mobility action in IAB in wireless communication networks. A method implemented in a Wireless Transmit/Receive Unit (WTRU) may comprises the steps of: determining traffic load information associated with a parent node; measuring received power of candidate parent nodes; selecting a candidate parent node based on the measured received power; performing a mobility action to the selected candidate parent node based on the determined traffic load information; and transmitting, to a child node, a message, the message comprising an information indicating the selected candidate.
