Abstract
Provided relates to route discovery in a telecommunication network. It particularly applies to route discovery in a network which uses Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB). Disclosed is a method of route discovery in connection with establishing a backup backhaul network in an Integrated Access and Backhaul, IAB, network, the method comprising: discovering and maintaining backup backhaul links by providing channel measurement and reporting mechanisms.
Claims17
A method of route discovery performed by a first Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node, the method comprising:
- receiving a synchronization signal block (SSB) from a second IAB node;
- performing a measurement based on the received SSB;
- and
- establishing a backup backhaul link with the second IAB node based on a result of the measurement,
- wherein the SSB is an off-raster SSB.
A first Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node for performing route discovery, comprising:
- a transceiver, and
- a processor configured to:
- receive a synchronization signal block (SSB) from a second IAB node,
- perform a measurement based on the received SSB, and
- establish a backup backhaul link with the second IAB node based on a result of the measurement,
- wherein the SSB is an off-raster SSB.
