Abstract
A method is for establishing one or more links for an integrated access and backhaul for millimeter wave network. The network includes a high-altitude platform (HAP) as a first node and a terrestrial node as a second node. The method includes obtaining location information of the HAP in the network, determining that the HAP can be used to provide an additional access link or an additional backhaul link in the network in connection with the terrestrial node, controlling one or more transceivers of the terrestrial node to point towards the HAP according to the location information, and establishing the additional access link or the additional backhaul link between the HAP and the terrestrial node.
