Autonomous low latency communication
A relay wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive a data transmission from a target WTRU. The data transmission from the target WTRU may be or may include an implicit indication that the target WTRU is unable to listen for a message directed to the target WTRU. The message directed to the target WTRU may be a broadcast preemption message (BPM) and may be transmitted from a source WTRU. Based on the reception of the data transmission from the target WTRU, the relay WTRU may determine that the target WTRU is unable to listen for the BPM. Based on the determination, the relay WTRU may monitor for the BPM. The relay WTRU may receive and decode the BPM. The relay WTRU may determine whether to relay the BPM in a message, such as a broadcast relay message (BRM). The relay WTRU may transmit the BRM to the target WTRU.
