Abstract:
A method in a User Equipment (UE) is provided. The method comprises: obtaining a request to transmit a random access message on a non-anchor carrier to a network node; determining a coverage enhancement (CE) level of the UE with respect to the non-anchor carrier based on a first procedure for the non-anchor carrier, the first procedure for the non-anchor carrier being based on a second procedure associated with an anchor carrier; determining radio resources associated with the determined CE level for transmitting the random access message; transmitting to the network node the random access message on the non-anchor carrier using the determined radio resources. A UE for performing this method is also provided.
