    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a first user equipment (UE) receiving, from an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node, an indication that the IAB node supports sidelink communications. The indication may be broadcast by the IAB node or indicated via an established connection, such as a radio resource control (RRC) connection. The first UE may select the IAB node to relay communications between the first UE and a second wireless node based at least in part on the indication that the IAB node supports sidelink communications. The UE may communicate one or more data messages with the second wireless node via the IAB node in accordance the selecting of the IAB node to relay the communications.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for first integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node establishing a signaling connection with an IAB donor node and a sidelink connection with a second IAB node or a user equipment (UE). The first IAB node may include a mobile termination unit and a distributed unit and may support sidelink communications. In some cases, the first IAB node may report an indication of sidelink communications support, receive an indication of sidelink communication authorization, and receive sidelink configuration information. The first IAB node may transmit one or more data messages to the IAB donor on the signaling connection and transmit one or more data messages to the second IAB node or the UE via the sidelink connection.
