Abstract
An apparatus comprising means for receiving, by an integrated access backhaul node from an integrated access backhaul donor, information for limiting re-routing of data packets over one or more wireless backhaul connections of an integrated access backhaul network; means for receiving, by the integrated access backhaul node, at least one data packet over a first wireless backhaul connection from an originating integrated access backhaul node; means for re-routing, by the integrated access backhaul node, the received at least one data packet over a second wireless backhaul connection based on the received information for limiting re-routing.
Claims8
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one non-transitory memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:
- receive, by an integrated access backhaul node from an integrated access backhaul donor, information for limiting re-routing of data packets over one or more wireless backhaul connections of an integrated access backhaul network;
- receive, by the integrated access backhaul node, at least one data packet over a first wireless backhaul connection from an originating integrated access backhaul node;
- re-route, by the integrated access backhaul node, the received at least one data packet over a second wireless backhaul connection based on the received information for limiting re-routing,
- characterized in that re-routing the received at least one data packet comprises
- determine, by the integrated access backhaul node, one or more unallowed wireless backhaul connections for re-routing the received at least one data packet based on the received information for limiting re-routing of data packets;
- determine, by the integrated access backhaul node, a set of available wireless backhaul connections for re-routing the received at least one data packet based on the determined unallowed wireless backhaul connections;
- re-route, by the integrated access backhaul node, the received at least one data packet over at least one wireless backhaul connection of the set of available wireless backhaul connections.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by an integrated access backhaul node from an integrated access backhaul donor, information for limiting re-routing of data packets over one or more wireless backhaul connections of an integrated access backhaul network;
- receiving, by the integrated access backhaul node, at least one data packet over a first wireless backhaul connection from an originating integrated access backhaul node;
- re-routing, by the integrated access backhaul node, the received at least one data packet over a second wireless backhaul connection based on the received information for limiting re-routing,
- characterized in that re-routing the received at least one data packet comprises
- determine, by the integrated access backhaul node, one or more unallowed wireless backhaul connections for re-routing the received at least one data packet based on the received information for limiting re-routing of data packets;
- determine, by the integrated access backhaul node, a set of available wireless backhaul connections for re-routing the received at least one data packet based on the determined unallowed wireless backhaul connections;
- re-route, by the integrated access backhaul node, the received at least one data packet over at least one wireless backhaul connection of the set of available wireless backhaul connections.
A non-transitory program storage device readable with a machine, tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable with the machine for performing operations, the operations comprising:
- receiving, by an integrated access backhaul node from an integrated access backhaul donor, information for limiting re-routing of data packets over one or more wireless backhaul connections of an integrated access backhaul network;
- receiving, by the integrated access backhaul node, at least one data packet over a first wireless backhaul connection from an originating integrated access backhaul node;
- re-routing, by the integrated access backhaul node, the received at least one data packet over a second wireless backhaul connection based on the received information for limiting re-routing,
- characterized in that re-routing the received at least one data packet comprises
- determine, by the integrated access backhaul node, one or more unallowed wireless backhaul connections for re-routing the received at least one data packet based on the received information for limiting re-routing of data packets;
- determine, by the integrated access backhaul node, a set of available wireless backhaul connections for re-routing the received at least one data packet based on the determined unallowed wireless backhaul connections;
- re-route, by the integrated access backhaul node, the received at least one data packet over at least one wireless backhaul connection of the set of available wireless backhaul connections.
