Abstract: An arrangement for role management in relay communication is disclosed. In relay communication, one user equipment relays communication between a base station and at least one remote user equipment. Initially, the relay user equipment has a better signal to a base station. When the signal changes, a better signal channel may be achieved by switching roles between a relay user equipment and a remote user equipment. This includes detecting that a better signal exists and determining that a change would provide a better signal.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for new radio (NR) sidelink relay of small data transmissions (SDT) are provided. One method may include determining whether conditions to use SDT via at least one relay user equipment are met. When it is determined that the conditions to use the SDT are met, the method may include transmitting a SDT relaying request comprising a SDT payload to the at least one relay user equipment. The method may also include receiving a SDT response, from the at least one relay user equipment, based on how the SDT relaying request is transmitted.
