1. A user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more memories storing processor-executable code; and
one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and individually or collectively operable to execute the code to cause the UE to:
receive a control message configuring the UE to monitor for location reporting messaging from a relay device positioned on a vehicle;
receive at least one location reporting message from the relay device indicating first positioning information of the relay device;
generate a second positioning information of the UE;
determine a location of the UE relative to the vehicle based at least in part on a correlation between the first positioning information of the relay device and
the second positioning information of the UE; and
perform a first cell selection procedure to associate with a cell of the relay device based at least in part on the correlation between the first positioning information of the relay device and
the second positioning information of the UE satisfying a threshold.
