Abstract:
Various communication systems may benefit from identification of and communication of coverage shortfall. For example, certain communication systems that employ machine type communication devices may benefit from having such shortfall communicated from the devices to a base nation. For example, a method can include determining an amount of coverage shortfall of a device. The method can also include transmitting an indication of the amount of coverage shortfall.

Claim (Index 69):
An apparatus, comprising:\n at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to transmit to a mobile device, information indicating support of a plurality of coverage enhancement levels for the mobile device, wherein a coverage enhancement level provides signal strength information and each coverage enhancement level corresponds to a different physical random access channel for the mobile device; and receive from the mobile device, a preamble signal using a physical random access channel corresponding to a coverage enhancement level selected by the mobile device, from the plurality of coverage enhancement levels, wherein the physical random access channel corresponding to the selected coverage enhancement level is an extended physical random access channel overlapping a physical random access channel.
