  • Patent number: 12058669
    Abstract: A repeater BWP switching schedule is provided for a repeater that is responsive to a user equipment BWP switching schedule. Should the repeater support a plurality of active user equipments, the user equipment BWP switching schedule is a superset of the BWP switching schedule for each individual user equipment.
