DATA RADIO BEARER MAPPING IN A TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORK WITH RELAYS
First Claim
1. A method for operating a relay having a first plurality of radio bearers (RBs) that interface with a donor base station and having a second plurality of RBs that interface with at least one user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
- mapping each of the second plurality of RBs to one of the first plurality of RBs based on a QoS class identifier (QCI) associated therewith.

Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques for operating a relay having a first plurality of radio bearers (RBs) that interface with a donor base station and having a second plurality of RBs that interface with at least one user equipment (UE). According to certain aspects, the techniques generally include mapping each of the second plurality of RBs to one of the first plurality of RBs based on a QoS class identifier (QCI) associated therewith.

25. A computer program product comprising a computer-readable medium having instructions for operating a relay having a first plurality of radio bearers (RBs) that interface with a donor base station and having a second plurality of RBs that interface with at least one user equipment (UE) stored thereon, the instructions executable by one or more processors for:
-
establishing a first base station radio bearer (RB) configured to interface between a donor base station and a relay node (RN); establishing a plurality of user equipment RBs configured to interface between the RN and at least one user equipment; and determining a mapping of a plurality of user equipment RBs to the first base station RB, wherein the mapping maps user equipment RBs having a same quality of service (QoS) class identifier to a common base station RB. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)
