Handover procedure for vehicle based communications

A method for wireless communication, comprising:

• receiving, by a target communication node, a first message from a source communication node requesting a hand-over procedure for handing over one or more mobile devices from the source communication node to the target communication node, the first message indicating a traffic pattern information of the one or more mobile devices, wherein the traffic pattern information includes a set of traffic interval or periodicity, the traffic pattern information further including at least one of a timing offset, a Quality of Service (QoS) Indicator, a priority, a reliability, a delay, a layer-2 destination identity, a maximum transport block (TB) size, an identifier for an uplink (UL) logical channel, an identifier for a sidelink logical channel, a sidelink communication type, an expected configured grant type, a time duration, or a subcarrier spacing;
• and
• transmitting, by the target communication node, a second message to the source communication node in response to the first message, wherein the second message includes at least one of:
• a determination to accept or deny sidelink resources for a group, a list of accepted group members, a bandwidth part or a beam direction for sidelink communication in the group, a resource or a resource pool allocated for each of the one or more mobile devices, an identifier for each of the one or more mobile devices allocated by the target communication node, a list of accepted or defined Protocol Data Unit (PDU) sessions for each of the one or more mobile devices, an accepted sidelink radio bearer or QoS flow list for each of the one or more mobile devices, or a denied sidelink radio bearer or QoS flow list for each of the one or more mobile devices, the denied side radio bearer or QoS flow list further including a cause of denial.

A wireless communication apparatus, comprising a processor configured to:

• transmit a first message to a target communication node requesting a hand-over procedure for handing over one or more mobile devices from the apparatus to the target communication node, the first message indicating a traffic pattern information of the one or more mobile devices, wherein the traffic pattern information includes a set of traffic interval or periodicity, the traffic pattern information further including at least one of a timing offset, a Quality of Service (QoS) Indicator, a priority, a reliability, a delay, a layer-2 destination identity, a maximum transport block (TB) size, an identifier for an uplink (UL) logical channel, an identifier for a sidelink logical channel, a sidelink communication type, an expected configured grant type, a time duration, or a subcarrier spacing;
• and
• receive a second message from the target communication node in response to the first message, wherein the second message includes at least one of:
• a determination to accept or deny sidelink resources for a group, a list of accepted group members, a bandwidth part or a beam direction for sidelink communication in the group, a resource or a resource pool allocated for each of the one or more mobile devices, an identifier for each of the one or more mobile devices allocated by the target communication node, a list of accepted or defined Protocol Data Unit (PDU) sessions for each of the one or more mobile devices, an accepted sidelink radio bearer or QoS flow list for each of the one or more mobile devices, or a denied sidelink radio bearer or QoS flow list for each of the one or more mobile devices, the denied side radio bearer or QoS flow list further including a cause of denial.
