INCENTIVE-BASED RELAYING WITH PRIORITIZATION

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit signaling to a user equipment (UE) indicating one or more resources for a relay data transmission and a priority scheme for the relay data transmission and a current data transmission. The priority scheme may indicate a priority value for the relay data transmission and the current data transmission. The UE may selectively transmit the relay data transmission, the current data transmission, or both based on the priority scheme. If the priority scheme indicates the current data transmission has a higher priority than the relay data transmission, then the UE may transmit the current data transmission using the resources. If the priority scheme indicates the current data transmission has a lower priority than the relay data transmission, then the UE may transmit the relay data transmission using the resources.
