Abstract
An assisting node receives from a network entity, configuration information relating to one or more control data sets, the one or more control data sets comprising information relating to a plurality of sidelink (SL) nodes. The AN provides a relay sidelink (SL) link via the assisting node between a transmitting (Tx) SL node and a receiving (Rx) SL node of at least one pair of SL nodes from the plurality of SL nodes. The at least one pair of SL nodes is based at least in part on the configuration information.
Claims30
A method for wireless communication by an assisting node (AN), comprising:
- receiving, from a network entity, configuration information relating to one or more control data sets, the one or more control data sets comprising information relating to a plurality of sidelink (SL) nodes;
- and
- providing a relay sidelink (SL) link via the assisting node (AN) between a transmitting (Tx) SL node and a receiving (Rx) SL node of at least one pair of SL nodes from the plurality of SL nodes, the at least one pair of SL nodes being based at least in part on the configuration information.
A method for wireless communication by a network entity, comprising:
- determining configuration information relating to one or more control data sets, the one or more control data sets comprising information relating to a plurality of sidelink (SL) nodes;
- and
- transmitting, to at least one assisting node (AN), the configuration information relating to the one or more control data sets.
A method for wireless communication by a sidelink (SL) node, comprising:
- transmitting, to a network entity, one or more reports;
- and
- receiving, from the network entity, configuration information based at least in part on the one or more reports.
An apparatus for wireless communication by an assisting node (AN), comprising:
- at least one processor;
- at least one memory module coupled to the at least one processor;
- and
- instructions stored in the at least one memory module and executable by the at least one processor to cause the apparatus to:
- receive, from a network entity, configuration information relating to one or more control data sets, the one or more control data sets comprising information relating a plurality of sidelink (SL) nodes;
- and
- provide a relay sidelink (SL) link via the assisting node (AN) between a transmitting (Tx) SL node and a receiving (Rx) SL node of at least one pair of SL nodes from the plurality of SL nodes, the at least one pair of SL nodes being based at least in part on the configuration information.
