Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for configuring repeater-assisted communication. One method includes transmitting, from a first network node (“NN”), an indication of repeater-assisted communication to a second NN and a third NN. The method includes transmitting configuration information to the second NN and the third NN. The configuration information includes control information that corresponds to whether the second NN and the third NN are turned on or turned off, the control information corresponding to whether the second NN and the third NN are turned on or turned off is correlated, the control information identifies timing information for the second NN and the third NN, and the timing information indicates whether the second NN and the third NN are expected to transmit a signal received at the second NN and the third NN at a prior time to the first NN and/or a fourth NN based on the configuration information.
