Abstract
A user device, UE, for a wireless communication network, is connectable to two or more of a plurality of network slices of the wireless communication network, wherein a slice specific random-access channel, RACH, resource configuration is associated with one or more of the plurality of slices. The UE is configured or pre-configured with slice specific RACH resource configurations for some or all of the plurality of slices. Responsive to a RACH event, the UE is to determine a slice that triggered and/or that is associated with the RACH event, and select the slice specific RACH resource configuration associated with the determined slice to be used for performing a RACH procedure.
