Abstract:
In a 5G network, an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) deployment in a 5G network, can enable aggregation of multiple user equipment (UE) bearers into backhaul bearers based on factors such as route information of UE bearers and quality of service of UE bearers. Additionally, reconfiguration of backhaul bearers, based on triggers, such as route changes for UE bearers can increase network efficiency for a 5G or other next generation network.
