Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, terminal devices, network nodes and apparatus for random access process in a wireless network. The method at the terminal device may comprise: receiving additional information related to a terminal device together with a random access preamble. With embodiments of the present disclosure, the additional information related to a terminal device can be transmitted to the network node together with a random access preamble; in such a case, further useful information is available for the eNB, which might substantially facilitate the random access process for either initial access or non-initial access.

Methods, terminal devices, network elements and apparatuses for random access process

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, terminal device and apparatus for physical random access channel (PRACH) power control and a method, network device and apparatus for transmitting parameters of PRACH power control. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method of PRACH power control may comprise determining a transmission power of PRACH preamble based on a power constriction of a terminal device, a preamble received target transmission power and a downlink path loss on a beam level. With embodiments of the present disclosure, it could provide a power control for PRACH with improved accuracy, which increases the success possibility of random access attempt and interferences to other devices.
