[0025] Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide apparatuses and techniques for managing radio bearers in a wireless communication network having relay nodes and supplier base stations. In some networks, such as LTE networks with relay nodes, the relay node can serve multiple UE packet streams. The Uu radio bearer used for the UE packet flow between the relay node and the UE it serves is carried by the Un data radio bearer used for the relay packet flow between the relay node and its supplier base station.
[0026] As described above, when the backhaul link between the relay node and the donor base station deteriorates or when too many UE flows are allowed on the backhaul link, the donor base station may suffer congestion on its Un interface. When this happens, the donor base station is expected to release the UE context or part of the Uu bearer of the UE served under the relay node. However, although the supplier base station is visible to the Uu bearer under the LTE re...
