Abstract
A multi-core data communication system serves a wireless relay from a relay core and serves User Equipment (UE) from a UE core. The relay core establishes a relay bearer between the relay and the relay core over a wireless base station. The relay receives a data request from the UE and transfers a UE data request to the UE core indicating a UE ID, a Relay ID, and a Relay Core ID. The UE core receives the UE data request and responsively transfers a core-to-core message indicating the Relay ID to the relay core. The relay core receives the core-to-core message and directs the base station to modify the relay bearer. The UE and the UE core exchange user data over a UE bearer that traverses the modified relay bearer.
