Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A method performed by a wireless device, the method comprising:
initiating a random access procedure in which the wireless device sends a Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) preamble to a network node; and
applying a receiver configuration for receiving an access response, the receiver configuration determined based at least in part on whether a many-to-one association exists between (a) a downlink signal that, prior to the initiating the random access procedure, is used for beam selection, and (b) PRACH preamble indices, and
configuring the wireless device with the many-to-one association via a dedicated RRC message that is indicative of at least one of: move the wireless device from connected state to idle or inactive state, or issue a handover command,
wherein applying the receiver configuration comprises configuring receive weights for receiving the access response differently than receive weights used for receiving the downlink signal on a preferred beam based on the downlink signal and based on the PRACH preamble indices having the many-to-one association.
