Title: Management of radio link failure and deficiencies in integrated access backhauled networks
Inventor: PASCAL LAGRANGE
IPC: H04W40/22
Filed: 2021-01-06
Abstract: In an IAB network, an IAB-node detects a deficiency or failure of one backhaul (BH) link. A BH radio link failure (RLF) indication message is sent to its child IAB-nodes specifying the Backhaul Adaptation Protocol (BAP) paths that are impacted, a quality of those paths and the deficient radio link by indicating the other IAB-node sharing the link. The same messages are transmitted to this sharing IAB-node, but also to the IAB-donor in order to adapt the routing configuration of the IAB-nodes to the topology. BAP packets for the impacted BAP paths are rerouted using alternative BAP paths. IAB-nodes receiving the BH RLF indication message also apply routing strategies for the impacted BAP paths, taking into account the indicated quality. A similar message is transmitted when the BH radio link experiences recovery, so that the IAB-nodes stop rerouting the BAP packets and the IAB-donor restore the original routing configuration.
