Abstract
The present disclosure relates to radio network communication. In one of its aspects, the disclosure presented herein concerns a method performed by a first UE for transmitting group Buffer Status Reports (BSRs) for group transmissions to a Base Station (BS) in a wireless communication system. The wireless communication system comprises the BS and a plurality of UEs, including the first UE. The plurality of UEs are assigned to a group, wherein at least one of the UEs within the assigned group has data for group transmission to the BS. The method comprises transmitting, to the BS, a group BSR. The group BSR comprises at least one identifier identifying a request for SideLink (SL) transmissions within the assigned group and identifying a request for cooperative UpLink (UL) group transmissions of data by the UEs within the assigned group to the BS once the SL transmissions to the UEs within the assigned group are completed.
