Abstract

Various solutions for coverage extension allowing improved high-frequency and high-data-rate cellular coverage of devices located in conditions of poor network coverage in mobile communications are described. The described solutions may extend coverage, for example, via a sidelink interface between two mobile devices, a relay device in good coverage and a remote device that may be in poor coverage, thus allowing the remote device to communicate using the relay device as a backhaul link to a cellular network.
