Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a child node of a parent node in an integrated access backhaul (IAB) network may determine communication information that includes one or more of a schedule or a configuration for a communication to be transmitted by the child node. The child node may be an IAB node, and the parent node may be an IAB donor or an intervening IAB node between the IAB node and an IAB donor. The child node may transmit the communication information to the parent node via a wireless backhaul link between the child node and the parent node. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: A relay supporting multiple relay modes is provided. The relay transmits capability information to a base station, the capability information indicating support for a first relay mode and a second relay mode. The relay determines a mode of operation, either on its own or based on an indication of a mode of operation from the base station, wherein the mode of operation comprises the first relay mode or the second relay mode. The relay communicates with at least one of the base station or another wireless device based at least in part on the determined mode of operation.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for mesh connectivity between integrated access and backhaul (IAB) nodes. A first node of an IAB network may determine a routing address for a second node, and communications may be transmitted to the second node based on the routing address to allow for coordination between the first and second nodes. The first node may detect a discovery signal of a second node, and may determine to communicate with the second node based on the discovery signal. The first node may obtain the routing address based on one or more of transmitting a request for the routing address to a third node, establishing a sidelink connection with the second node to obtain the routing address, receiving a mapping between routing addresses and cell IDs that are transmitted in discovery signals, or any combinations thereof.

Abstract: When an integrated access backhaul (IAB) node connected to a user equipment (UE) detects a radio link failure in a communication with an IAB donor, the IAB node may perform various features to cause the UE perform one or more features accordingly without explicitly indicating the radio link failure to the UE. The IAB node may detecting a radio link failure in a communication between the IAB node and an IAB donor, and determine whether the IAB node has recovered from the radio link failure. The IAB node may refrain from broadcasting one or more synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) to one or more UEs including a UE connected to the IAB node in response to determining that the IAB node has not recovered from the radio link failure.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may determine to operate in accordance with an energy saving mode in which the base station only transmits remaining minimum system information (RMSI) on-demand or reduces transmission of RMSI with respect to when the base station is operating outside of the energy saving mode. A user equipment (UE) may detect the base station that is operating in an energy saving mode. The UE may transmit a request for the base station to transmit the RMSI to the UE, where the UE may transmit the request to the energy saving base station or to a serving base station of the UE. The UE may receive, from the base station operating in the energy saving mode and responsive to the request, a message including the remaining minimum system information.

Abstract: A wireless node in a wireless multi-hop network may transmit, based at least in part on a change in multiplexing capability relating to communications on one or more radio link control (RLC) channels, information to at least one of a parent node or a child node that enables the at least one of the parent node or the child node to prioritize communications with the wireless node. The wireless node may transmit or receive communications prioritized according to the information with the at least one of the parent node or the child node.

Abstract: When moving within an area covered by an Integrated access and backhaul (IAB) network, a mobile IAB node may come into proximity with another stationary or mobile IAB node that may have a same physical cell identifier (PCI) as the mobile IAB node. PCI collision issue may occur. Aspects presented herein address the possible PCI collisions. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be an IAB node configured to determine a configuration associated with PCI management of a PCI of the IAB node. The apparatus may be further configured to change the PCI of the IAB node based on the determined configuration.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For example, a first communication device may receive, from a second communication device, control signaling triggering a channel access procedure at the first communication device. In some case, the channel access procedure may be for accessing the shared radio frequency spectrum. The first communication device may then perform the channel access procedure based on the control signaling. In some examples, the first communication device may, based on the channel access procedure, transmit an indication of a channel occupancy initiated by the first communication device to the second communication device. The first communication device may relay communications between the second communication device and a third communication device during a channel occupancy time (COT) based on the transmitted indication of the channel occupancy initiated by the first communication device.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless node may establish a first connection between a child wireless node and a first base station and a second connection between the child wireless node and a second base station, wherein the first connection is an F1-U direct path and the second connection is an F1-U alternative path. The wireless node may forward at least a portion of user-plane traffic between the child wireless node and the first base station via the second connection and the second base station. Numerous other aspects are described.
