Processing method for relay ue and user equipment

8:

• User equipment (UE), comprising:
• a processor;
• and
• a memory in electronic communication with the processor, wherein instructions stored in the memory are executable to:
• receive, from another UE, a message via a sidelink connection, wherein the message includes a paging indication containing an UE identity of the UE;
• and
• perform,
• in a case that the UE is in idle state, indication of the UE identity to a layer upper than a radio resource control (RRC) layer, and
• in a case that the UE is in inactive state, initiation of an RRC resumption procedure.

9:

• User equipment (UE), comprising:
• a processor;
• and
• a memory in electronic communication with the processor, wherein instructions stored in the memory are executable to:
• receive, from a base station, a paging message including a UE identity;
• and
• in a case the UE identity included in the paging message is the same with a UE identity of a remote UE, initiate a transmission of a message to the remote UE via a sidelink connection, wherein the message includes a paging indication containing the UE identity of the remote UE.

10:

• A processing method for user equipment (UE), comprising:
• receiving, from another UE, a message via a sidelink connection, wherein the message includes a paging indication containing an UE identity of the UE;
• and
• performing,
• in a case that the UE is in idle state, indication of the UE identity to a layer upper than a radio resource control (RRC) layer, and
• in a case that the UE is in inactive state, initiation of an RRC resumption procedure.
