Abstract
Methods and apparatus for supporting adaptive quality of service (QoS) in sidelink relays are described. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) includes a transceiver and a processor. The transceiver and the processor receive a configuration, from a wireless network, the configuration indicating an initial first hop latency budget for communications via a relay WTRU. They also receive one or more packets from a higher layer and receive an indication from the relay WTRU. The transceiver and the processor also determine an updated first hop latency budget based at least on the received indication.
Claims11
A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprising:
- a transceiver and a processor configured to:
- receive a configuration, from a wireless network, the configuration indicating an initial first hop latency budget for communications via a relay WTRU,
- receive one or more packets from a higher layer,
- receive an indication from the relay WTRU,
- determine an updated first hop latency budget based at least on the received indication,
- perform a channel busy ratio (CBR) measurement on a resource pool associated with a sidelink connected to the relay WTRU based on the updated first hop latency budget being less than the initial first hop latency budget, and
- transmit the one or more packets using resources selected using the updated first hop latency budget based on the CBR measurement being less than or equal to a CBR threshold.
A method, implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), the method comprising:
- receiving a configuration, from a wireless network, the configuration indicating an initial first hop latency budget for communications via a relay WTRU;
- receiving one or more packets from a higher layer;
- receiving an indication from the relay WTRU;
- determining an updated first hop latency budget based at least on the received indication;
- performing a channel busy ratio (CBR) measurement on a resource pool associated with a sidelink connected to the relay WTRU based on the updated first hop latency budget being less than the initial first hop latency budget;
- and
- transmitting the one or more packets resources selected using the updated first hop latency budget based on the CBR measurement being less than or equal to a CBR threshold.
