    Abstract: A UE comprises: a memory comprising instructions; and one or more processors in communication with the memory, wherein the one or more processors execute the instructions to: wirelessly communicate with a source node, perform a handover from the source node to a target node using L2 signaling in response to a handover decision between the source node and the target node, and wirelessly communicate with the target node in response to the handover. A method implemented by a UE comprises: wirelessly communicating with a source node; performing a handover from the source node to a target node using L2 signaling and in response to a handover decision; and wirelessly communicating with the target node in response to the handover.

    Abstract: A method for operating a transmitting device includes receiving a first packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) protocol data unit (PDU) associated with a first remote device (RD), the first PDCP PDU including at least a first PDCP header, generating a first nested PDCP PDU in accordance with the first PDCP PDU, the first nested PDCP PDU including a second PDCP header and the first PDCP PDU, the second PDCP header comprising a first PDU type indicator indicating that the first nested PDCP PDU includes a first relayed PDCP PDU and a first identifier associated with the first RD, and sending the first nested PDCP PDU on a radio bearer.
