TECHNIQUES FOR COMMUNICATING RANDOM ACCESS MESSAGES BASED ON BEAM REFINING IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS

Abstract:

Aspects described herein relate to transmitting a first random access message in a random access procedure based on whether beam refinement is configured. In an aspect, it can be determined whether a base station uses beam refinement for receiving a first random access message in a two-step random access procedure. Based on whether the base station uses beam refinement, one or more parameters for transmitting the first random access message can be determined, and the first random access message can be transmitted to the base station and based on the one or more parameters.
