Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured for contention-based forwarding (CBF) to relay a message toward a destination. The UE may receive signaling indicating a configuration for CBF. The CBF configuration may be associated with a maximum communication range for CBF signaling. The UE may receive a message to relay toward the destination using CBF. The message may include a first indication of a dynamic communication range for the CBF which may be less than or equal to the maximum communication range. The UE may determine a timer value to retransmit the message based on the dynamic communication range. When a timer set to the timer value expires, the UE may retransmit the message to nearby stations and include an indication of the dynamic communication range with the message.
