Abstract
A remote user equipment (UE) device receives a sidelink (SL) discovery message from each of a plurality of candidate relay UE devices where each SL discovery message is transmitted using a discovery resource of a discovery resource pool of a plurality of discovery resource pools. Each discovery resource pool is allocated to a range of Reference Signals Received Power (RSRP) levels. Each relay UE device measures an RSRP level of a link to a destination and transmits the SL discovery message using a discovery resource from the discovery pool associated with the RSRP range containing the measured RSRP level. The remote UE device selects (or reselects) a relay UE device from the candidates based, at least partially, on the RSRP ranges of the links from the candidate relay devices to the destination.
