Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for communications between a user equipment (UE) and a base station via one or more relays. The UE and base station may establish a direct connection according to a first UE capability, and the UE may identify one or more relays that are in proximity to the UE and that may be used for relaying communications between the UE and the base station. The UE may provide a capability indication of a second UE capability to the base station that indicates transmission parameters associated with at least one relay, which the base station may use to communicate with the UE via the relay. The base station may select which UE capability to use for communications, which may result in either direct communications with the UE or a connection via the relay.
