Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems, methods, and devices for an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node comprising: processing circuitry configured to communicate IAB information with an another IAB node; and transmitting circuitry configured to transmit, to the another IAB node, a set of one or more parameters used for coordinating downlink resources and uplink resources in radio resources to be used for the IAB communication. Other embodiments include an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node comprising: processing circuitry configured to communicate IAB information with an another IAB node; and receiving circuitry configured to receive, from the another IAB node, a set of one or more parameters used for coordinating downlink resources and uplink resources in radio resources to be used for the IAB communication.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node comprising: processing circuitry configured to have a capability to communicate IAB information with an another IAB node; and transmitting circuitry configured to transmit, to the another IAB node, a set of one or more parameters used for coordinating downlink resources and uplink resources in radio resources to be used for the IAB communication. 2 . The IAB node according to claim 1 , wherein the transmitting circuitry is further configured to transmit, to the another IAB node, capability information used for indicating supported capabilities by the IAB node. 3 . The IAB node according to claim 2 , wherein the supported capabilities comprise at least one of: a capability of band combinations, a capability of number of carriers aggregated, a capability of Inter-RAT (Radio Access Technology), a capability of the number of transmit layers, a capability of the number of receive layers, and a capability of supported subcarrier spacings. 4 . An Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node comprising: processing circuitry configured to have a capability to communicate IAB information with an another IAB node; and receiving circuitry configured to receive, from the another IAB node, a set of one or more parameters used for coordinating downlink resources and uplink resources in radio resources to be used for the IAB communication. 5 . The IAB node according to claim 4 , wherein the receiving circuitry is further configured to receive, from the another IAB node, capability information used for indicating supported capabilities by the IAB node. 6 . The IAB node according to claim 5 , wherein the supported capabilities comprise at least one of: a capability of band combinations, a capability of number of carriers aggregated, a capability of Inter-RAT (Radio Access Technology), a capability of the number of transmit layers, a capability of the number of receive layers, and a capability of supported subcarrier spacings. 7 . A method of an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node comprising: having a capability to communicate IAB information with an another IAB node; and transmitting, to the another IAB node, a parameter(s) used for coordinating downlink resources and uplink resources in radio resources to be used for the IAB communication. 8 . The method according to claim 7 , further comprising: transmitting, to the another IAB node, capability information used for indicating supported capabilities by the IAB node. 9 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein the supported capabilities comprise at least one of: a capability of band combinations, a capability of number of carriers aggregated, a capability of Inter-RAT (Radio Access Technology), a capability of the number of transmit layers, a capability of the number of receive layers, and a capability of supported subcarrier spacings. 10 . A method of an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node capabilities and signaling, the method comprising: communicating by the IAB node, IAB information with an another IAB node; and receiving, from the another IAB node, a set of one or more parameters used for coordinating downlink resources and uplink resources in radio resources to be used for the IAB communication. 11 . The method according to claim 10 , further comprising: receiving, by the another IAB node, capability information used for indicating supported capabilities by the IAB node. 12 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein the supported capabilities comprise at least one of: a capability of band combinations, a capability of number of carriers aggregated, a capability of Inter-RAT (Radio Access Technology), a capability of the number of transmit layers, a capability of the number of receive layers, and a capability of supported subcarrier spacings.
