Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for accessing a wireless network are provided herein. A method according to at least one embodiment includes receiving a transmission including system information indicating a random access channel (RACH) configuration. The RACH configuration may indicate one or more RACH occasions and one or more preambles, each of the RACH occasions associated with at least one of the one or more preambles. The method may include receiving one or more reference signals and transmitting one of the preambles in a RACH occasion that is associated with the transmitted preamble. The transmitted preamble may be selected for transmission based on a measurement of the received one or more reference signals, and wherein the transmitted preamble is transmitted using beamforming parameters derived based on the received one or more reference signals.
