Abstract
A method performed by a WTRU may comprise transmitting, to a gNB, a first random access preamble on a first physical random access channel (PRACH) resource of a first uplink (UL) carrier and determining that the transmission on the first PRACH resource is unsuccessful. The method may further comprise determining that a maximum number of random access retransmissions on the first UL carrier is met and in response, the WTRU may transmit, to the gNB on a second UL carrier, a third random access preamble on a third PRACH resource. The WTRU may determine an RA-RNTI for a second UL carrier at least in part by a carrier offset. The WTRU may monitor for a random access response (RAR) based on the RA-RNTI.
