Abstract:

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a network node may determine at least one parameter associated with use of a relay device to forward data between the network node and one or more wireless devices, the at least one parameter including a use time associated with the relay device, an amount of data associated with the relay device, or a combination thereof. The network node may transmit, to a central network node, the at least one parameter. Accordingly, the network node and/or the central network node may determine a payment amount associated with the relay device based at least in part on the at least one parameter.
