Abstract
A method of operating a communications device in a wireless communications network comprises transmitting a random access message on a wireless access interface, the random access message comprising a selected random access preamble. The method further comprises receiving a resource allocation message comprising an indication of downlink communications resources allocated for the transmission of a random access response message combined with a radio network terminal identifier which identifies the communications device which transmitted the random access message, determining that the resource allocation message identifies the communications device, and in response to determining that the resource allocation message identities the communications device, decoding the signals transmitted using the allocated downlink communications resources.
