Abstract
Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to handover for a device(s) served by an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node. A first device receives indication information indicating a change of service availability of a second device that serves at least one third device. The first device determines, based on the indication information, whether a handover of the at least one third device from the second device is to be triggered. In accordance with a determination that the handover of the at least one third device is to be triggered, the first device transmits, to the second device, handover information indicating at least one fourth device selected for the handover of the at least one third device from the second device.
