Claim 0:
1. A method implemented at an integrated access backhaul, IAB, node, the method comprising:
determining a first range of scheduling delay wherein the first range is different from a second range of scheduling delay determined by a neighboring IAB node having a hop to the IAB node, wherein the first range of scheduling delay is determined based on an end point of uplink grant transmission or downlink assignment transmission and at least one of a first delay threshold for the IAB node and a second delay threshold for the neighboring IAB node, wherein the first delay threshold is preconfigured in the IAB node or received from a management node, and wherein the second delay threshold is preconfigured in the IAB node or received from the neighboring IAB node; and
scheduling an uplink transmission or downlink reception to occur within the first range.
