Abstract: In a 5G network, an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) deployment in a 5G network, can enable aggregation of multiple user equipment (UE) bearers into backhaul bearers based on factors such as route information of UE bearers and quality of service of UE bearers. Additionally, an adaptation layer can be configured to perform aggregation of data from UE bearers into backhaul bearers either above or below a radio link control layer. Thus, aggregation of data from UE bearers into backhaul bearers can be performed either above the RLC or below the RLC to take advantage of benefits from both options.

The UE is configured with at least one numerology scheme, each associated with parameters partitioning time-frequency radio resources into resource scheduling units differently. The UE is configured with logical channels each of which is associated with at least one numerology scheme.

The processor performs a logical channel prioritization procedure by allocating the assigned uplink radio resources to the configured logical channels and by prioritizing those logical channels that are associated with the numerology scheme for which the uplink scheduling assignment is intended.
