Claim 26:
27. An apparatus for wireless communications at a first wireless node in an integrated access backhaul system, comprising:
a processor,
memory coupled with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
transmit, from a mobile terminal of the first wireless node and via a first backhaul link, a report indicating that the first wireless node supports using sounding reference signals (SRSs) for interference measurement;

receive, at the mobile terminal of the first wireless node and after transmission of the report, an indication of a configuration for interference measurement based at least in part on the report, the configuration indicating one or more SRS resource sets for interference measurement and a beam sweeping configuration for transmission of the SRSs, wherein the one or more SRS resource sets configured for interference measurement are different from one or more SRS resource sets configured for beam management; and
transmit, from the mobile terminal of the first wireless node and to a second wireless node in the integrated access backhaul system via a second backhaul link, the SRSs via the one or more SRS resource sets and using a set of transmission beams selected by the mobile terminal of the first wireless node based at least in part on the beam sweeping configuration.
