Abstract
The present aspects relate to device-to-device (D2D) relaying in a wireless communication system. In an aspect, a relay UE receive at least one message including a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) of at least a remote UE and transmit, on a sidelink channel, a sidelink grant associated with the RNTI to the remote UE. In another aspect, a remote UE may receive an indication to establish a connection with a relay UE on a sidelink channel, establishing the connection with the relay UE on the sidelink channel, and receive, from the relay UE on the sidelink channel, a sidelink grant associated with a RNTI of the remote UE.
