Techniques for selecting backhaul nodes for connecting to an integrated access and backhaul network

Abstract:

Aspects described herein relate to determining, based on a received signal strength, a set of potential backhaul nodes for providing a backhaul link in an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) network, determining, based at least in part on additional information regarding the set of potential backhaul nodes, at least one backhaul node of the set of potential backhaul nodes to which to connect over the backhaul link in the IAB network, and indicating, to an access node, the at least one backhaul node for attempting connection over the backhaul link.
