Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 6:
7. A base station in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:
a transceiver configured to:
transmit, to a user equipment (UE), common information including first information on a number of repetitions for a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) for a message 3 (Msg 3) via a radio resource control (RRC) signaling, wherein a plurality of candidate values of the number of repetitions for the PUSCH for the Msg 3 is configured based on the first information,
transmit, to the UE, a random access response (RAR) message including an uplink (UL) grant that schedules the PUSCH for the Msg 3, wherein a value of a field in the UL grant of the RAR message indicates one of the plurality of candidate values, and
receive, from the UE, the PUSCH including the Msg 3,

wherein:
the PUSCH including the Msg 3 is received based on the number of repetitions indicated based on the value of the field,
whether the PUSCH including the Msg 3 is repeatedly received is based on a comparison between a reference signal received power (RSRP) value and a threshold, and
in case that the RSRP value is less than the threshold, the PUSCH including the Msg 3 is received repeatedly on a selected UL BWP.
