Abstract:
1. An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising: at least one processor configured to determine at least one parameter value for at least one transmission parameter for random access signaling based on a particular user equipment (UE) class, the at least one transmission parameter having different values for a plurality of UE classes, and to send the random access signaling based on the at least one parameter value for system access; and a memory coupled to the at least one processor; wherein the at least one processor is further configured to send a random access preamble on a first channel, to receive a random access response on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) comprising a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI), a timing advance, uplink (UL) resources and a power control (PC) correction, and to send a message as the random access signaling on a second channel; and wherein the at least one processor is further configured to determine a transmit power based on the at least one transmission parameter value.
