The present disclosure relates to a communication method and
system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication
system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G)
system with a technology for
Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building,
smart city,
smart car, connected car, health care,
digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. There is provided a method for controlling a
wireless relay device and corresponding devices. The method includes: obtaining information used to indicate a capability of the
wireless relay device; transmitting the obtained information to an upstream
wireless relay device of the wireless relay device or a
base station; and receiving control information generated based on the information from the upstream wireless relay device or the
base station, wherein the control information is used to control communication of the wireless relay device. According to the method and the corresponding devices, the performance of a mobile communication system may be improved, and the communication efficiency of the mobile communication system may be improved.
