Abstract

A method for integrating access and backhaul links, the method includes: obtaining information indicating a data rate requirement for a link between a first AP and a second AP; obtaining information indicating a gain of the link between the first AP and the second AP; computing, using the gain of the link, an achievable data rate for the link between the first AP and the second AP, wherein the achievable data rate is computed based on an OMA scheme; determining that the data rate requirement is greater than the achievable data rate; and as a result of determining that the data rate requirement is greater than the achievable data rate, pairing a first UE with the first AP, such that a NOMA scheme is used for the link between the first AP and second AP and the link between the first AP and the first UE.
