Abstract

A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to an IAB backhaul sharing among co-located radio sites service. The IAB backhaul sharing among co-located radio sites service may include a traffic balancing service that performs access link bandwidth management and allocation to integrated access and backhaul (IAB) nodes based on bandwidth assessment of IAB backhaul links and bandwidth demands of IAB nodes. The service may further include a scheduling service that includes localized scheduling and load balancing at each IAB node of user traffic based on an allocated bandwidth provided by the traffic balancing service. The scheduling service may include an integrated schedule between co-located radio sites associated with the IAB node.
