Publication number: 20250106610Abstract: A U2N relay (110 #2) transmits a first sidelink discovery message containing base-station identification information of a base station (130) when the U2N relay (110 #2) is in communication range with the base station (130). When a U2U relay (110 #3) is in communication range with the U2N relay (110 #2) and not in communication range with the base station (130), the U2U relay (110 #3) receives the first sidelink discovery message and transmits a second sidelink discovery message containing mobile-terminal-device identification information of the U2N relay (110 #2) and base-station identification the information. When a remote UE (110 #1) is in communication range with the U2U relay (110 #3) and no in communication range with the base station (130) and the U2N relay (110 #2), the remote UE (110 #1) receives the second sidelink discovery message and establishes communication path to communicate with the base station (130) via the U2U relay (110 #3) and the U2N relay (110 #2).Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2021Publication date: March 27, 2025Applicant: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Naofumi IWAYAMA, Mitsuru MOCHIZUKI, Tadahiro SHIMODA, Fumiki HASEGAWA, Shinya MAKINO, Nobuhiko ANDO, Tatsuya TOKUDA, Masayuki NAKAZAWA, Masuo ITO
