Abstract

There is provided mechanisms for handling a deteriorating AP-to-AP wireless link in an IAB network. A method is performed by a first AP in the IAB network. The method comprises identifying signal deterioration of a first AP-to-AP wireless link between the first AP and a second AP in the IAB network. The first AP-to-AP wireless link is used for backhauling data for CPEs served by the second AP and for backhauling data for CPEs served by a third AP in the IAB network. The second AP has a second AP-to-AP wireless link to the third AP for backhauling data for the CPEs served by the third AP. The method comprises, in response thereto, relaying the data via a first CPE of the CPEs served by the second AP on a first direct wireless link between the first AP and the first CPE.
