Abstract
There is provided mechanisms for random access handling of a UE. A method is performed by a network node. The method comprises receiving, from the UE during a first RAO, a first RA preamble, whilst refraining from responding to the first RA preamble. The method comprises transmitting, towards the UE and without the network node first having received any retransmitted RA preamble from the UE, one RAR for each of N possible RA preambles, where each RAR comprises a TA command corresponding to a TA value estimated for the first RA preamble. The method comprises receiving, from the UE during a further RAO, a retransmitted RA preamble. The method comprises determining whether the TA value for the retransmitted RA preamble matches the TA value for the first RA preamble or not.
