  • Methods for Heterogeneous Multihop UE-to-UE Relay Discovery and Link Establishment
    Publication number: 20260164481
    Abstract: A WTRU receives a hybrid node configuration information comprising an indication for the WTRU to perform as a WTRU-to-WTRU relay and an end WTRU. The WTRU receives a first message comprising at least one direct discovery set, which comprises a list of end WTRU user information IDs of end WTRUs. The first message comprises a list of previous hops routing information for each end WTRU that indicates a sequence of user information IDs of WTRU-to-WTRU relays associated with an end WTRU. The first message comprises a list of hop counts for each end WTRU in the list of end WTRUs. The WTRU stores a route to each end WTRU in a direct discovery routing table based on the previous hops routing information. The WTRU sends a second message to a second WTRU-to-WTRU relay that comprises the at least one direct discovery set and end WTRU user information IDs.
