Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may perform an access procedure for establishing or reestablishing a connection with a network entity. The UE may transmit, as part of the access procedure, one or more repetitions of a narrowband physical random access channel (NPRACH) preamble to the network entity. Each repetition of the one or more repetitions may include a set of symbol groups, and each symbol group of the set of symbol groups may include a set of symbols used by the UE for transmitting the NPRACH preamble. In some examples, the set of symbols may include a subset of symbols to which an OCC is applied. The set of symbols may be multiplexed with one or more other sets of symbols associated with respective preambles of one or more other UEs.
