Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, device and computer readable storage medium implemented at a relay device. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the relay device determines whether a terminal device served by a network slice has to be handed over. In a case of determining that the terminal device has to be handed over, the relay device sends a request for local information to at least one candidate relay device, and the local information includes at least one of information associated with a backhaul link from a candidate relay device to a network device and slice configuration information of the candidate relay device. Based on the received local information, the relay device determines a candidate relay device for handover of the terminal device. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the relay device determines the candidate relay device to which the terminal device has to be handed over, based at least on the information associated with a backhaul link and the information associated with a network slice, so as to satisfy network slice configuration requirement and ensure backhaul quality of the terminal device.
