  • Step 0 Remote UE is currently performing communication with gNB over direct link and also concurrently being a recipient of ongoing mode 1 SL transmissions from a relay- capable SL Tx UE;
  • Step 1 gNB checks if there are any ongoing mode 1 SL transmissions for which the Remote UE is a recipient; Step 2: if there are ongoing mode 1 SL transmissions from a relay-capable SL Tx UE towards the Remote UE, gNB determines if the corresponding PC5 link quality is above a configurable threshold based on the HARQ feedback received from the SL Tx UE on its transmission to the Remote UE:
  • - PC5 link quality can also be determined based on one or more of the following feedback items when reported by the SL Tx UE: o configurable number of SL HARQ NACKs, o configurable number of SL retransmissions, o configurable number of failed parity checks while LDPC decoding on SL, o SL RSRP being below a configurable SL RSRP threshold, and o SL SINR being below a configurable SL SINR threshold;
  • Step 3 When the PC5 link quality between Mode 1 SL Tx UE and the Remote UE is observed to be above the configured threshold, gNB may determine the SL Tx UE as the Relay UE should the path switch be performed;
  • Step 4 as the Relay UE has already been chosen in Step 4 (should the path switch be performed), gNB may configure Remote UE to:
  • Remote UE may be configured to monitor only the link associated with the existing PC5 communications, and/or Conditional reporting of PC5 measurements of candidate Relay UEs, where the Remote UE performs measurement reporting only if e.g. : o If HARQ NACK FB (or ACK FB) reported by the Remote UE on the PC5 link for the existing PC5 communication is above a configured number of NACKs (or below a configured number of ACKs), and/or o If SD-RSRP is above a certain threshold;
  • Step 5 Remote UE evaluates the measurement condition using e.g., PC5 link quality of the existing direct communication mode-1 links and/or SD-RSRP measurements if configured, and reports PC5 measurement as per the configuration;
  • Step 6 gNB determines deterioration of the direct path above a certain threshold observation of the direct-path deterioration can be determined following the:
  • Step 7 Up on determination of deterioration of the direct path above a certain threshold, the gNB selects SL Tx UE (UE-2) as the Relay UE; and
