Abstract
Thus, aspects of the present disclosure allow for a target UE to utilize a cooperative device to communicate with a base station when the target UE is out of coverage or in poor radio connections, but can still connect to another UE over a non-3GPP technology. Aspects of the present disclosure may receive a derived radio resource control (RRC) key from a user equipment (UE) in a non-Third Generation Partnership Project (non-3GPP) link between the apparatus and the UE. In some aspects, the UE is out of coverage of a network entity in a 3GPP link with the apparatus. In another instance, aspects of the present disclosure may receive control data from the network entity in the 3GPP link using the derived RRC key. In yet another instance, aspects of the present disclosure may transmit the control data to the UE in the non-3GPP link.
