Techniques for updating resource types

Abstract:

A parent access node may establish a first link with a child access node. In some cases, the parent access node may determine to release a resource of the first. The parent access node may transmit downlink signaling indicating release of the resource. As such, the child node may schedule a child link resource (e.g., a parent-controlled resource) corresponding to the released resource. The child node may then communicate with a child node of its own in accordance with the scheduling of the child link resource. In some cases, the resource release indication may be associated with a one-time resource release, or may be associated with a semi-persistent release (e.g., until the parent node reclaims the released resources). In some examples, the child node may transmit an uplink message to request resources from the parent node (e.g., and the resource release may be based on the request).
