A random access procedure between a user equipment (UE) and a base station may include repetition of a random access message 3 based on an indication provided by a random access response (RAR) message including a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) portion and a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) portion. The base station may transmit the RAR message to indicate at least one random access message 3 repetition parameter. The UE may determine at least one random access message 3 repetition parameter based on the RAR message. The UE may transmit the random access message 3 with repetition based on the message 3 repetition parameter, and the base station may receive the random access message 3 based on the repetition parameter, thereby improving coverage of the random access message 3.
