8 Claims

1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE)-to-network relay in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

identifying information associated with a quality of service (QOS) mapping, wherein the information associated with the QoS mapping is pre-configured or received by the UE-to-network relay from a core network entity;

identifying whether end-to-end QOS requirements are supported, based on the information associated with the QoS mapping;

in case that the end-to-end QoS requirements are not supported, determining at least one QoS related parameter for a QoS control;

transmitting, to a remote UE, information including the at least one QoS related parameter determined by the UE-to-network relay; and

transmitting, to a base station, information associated with the at least one QoS related parameter determined by the UE-to-network relay.
