Abstract
Disclosed is a method and a network node for handling random access in a wireless communication network. The method includes receiving a random access preamble when a first number of receivers are active and a second number of the receivers are inactive, and sending a random access response to the received random access preamble. The method further includes determining whether a reception requirement for a subsequent random access procedure message is fulfilled, the subsequent random access procedure message being sent subsequent to the network node sending the random access response, the reception requirement being either whether the random access procedure message is received at the network node or whether the random access procedure message that is received has a sufficient quality, and when the reception requirement is determined not fulfilled, activating at least some of the inactive second number of receivers.
