Classifying nodes based on mobility state

A wireless integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node for wireless communication, comprising:

• one or more memories;
• and
• one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:
• identify one or more parameters indicating a mobility of a served IAB node relative to a serving IAB node, wherein the served IAB node comprises a mobile terminal (MT) of a child IAB node, and wherein the serving IAB node comprises a distributed unit (DU) of an IAB donor node;
• classify the served IAB node within a category, among a plurality of categories, based at least in part on the one or more parameters, wherein the plurality of categories include at least a first category for served IAB nodes that have a low mobility relative to the serving IAB node and a second category for served IAB nodes that have a high mobility relative to the serving IAB node, wherein one of the one or more parameters comprises a duration of time that the served IAB node has been camped on the serving IAB node;
• and
• provide wireless service to the served IAB node based at least in part on the category in which the served IAB node is classified.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions for wireless communication, the one or more instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a wireless integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node, cause the one or more processors to:
• identify one or more parameters indicating a mobility of a served IAB node relative to a serving IAB node, wherein the served IAB node comprises a mobile terminal (MT) of a child IAB node, and wherein the serving IAB node comprises a distributed unit (DU) of an IAB donor node;
• classify the served IAB node within a category, among a plurality of categories, based at least in part on the one or more parameters, wherein the plurality of categories include at least a first category for served IAB nodes that have a low mobility relative to the serving IAB node and a second category for served IAB nodes that have a high mobility relative to the serving IAB node, wherein one of the one or more parameters comprises a duration of time that the served IAB node has been camped on the serving IAB node;
• and
• provide wireless service to the served IAB node based at least in part on the category in which the served IAB node is classified.

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• means for identifying one or more parameters indicating a mobility of a served integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node relative to a serving IAB node, wherein the served IAB node comprises a mobile terminal (MT) of a child IAB node, and wherein the serving IAB node comprises a distributed unit (DU) of an IAB donor node;
• means for classifying the served IAB node within a category, among a plurality of categories, based at least in part on the one or more parameters, wherein the plurality of categories include at least a first category for served IAB nodes that have a low mobility relative to the serving IAB node and a second category for served IAB nodes that have a high mobility relative to the serving IAB node, wherein one of the one or more parameters comprises a duration of time that the served IAB node has been camped on the serving IAB node;
• and
• means for providing wireless service to the served IAB node based at least in part on the category in which the served IAB node is classified.
