METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING RANDOM ACCESS PROCEDURE FOR COVERAGE ENHANCEMENT

Abstract:

Provided are a method and an apparatus for performing a random access procedure for coverage enhancement. The method of a user equipment (UE) for performing a random access procedure for coverage enhancement may include transmitting a random access channel preamble (RACH Preamble) for repeated transmission of Msg3 through a Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH), receiving a random access response (RAR) including uplink scheduling information for the repeated transmission of the Msg3, and repeatedly transmitting the Msg3 based on the uplink scheduling information.
