Abstract
5G relay nodes attached to millimeter wave carriers (whether standalone or EN-DC) may suffer from poor quality of service due to intermodulation distortion at the donor access node. The relay node is instructed to attach to a lower-frequency carrier, or a different donor access node. The lower-frequency carrier can include another 5G carrier deployed by the same donor access node, or a 4G carrier or any other carrier.
