Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatuses for physical random access channel (PRACH) repetition. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a user equipment (UE) can include: a receiver that receives configuration information; a processor coupled to the receiver, wherein the processor: determines a plurality of synchronization signal block (SSB) patterns based on the configuration information, wherein each SSB pattern includes one or more SSBs; determines an SSB pattern from the plurality of SSB patterns; determines a set of random access channel (RACH) occasions (ROs) for PRACH repetition based on the determined SSB pattern; determines, from the plurality of SSB patterns, a set of SSB patterns associated with each RO of the set of ROs, wherein the set of SSB patterns include the determined SSB pattern; and determines a set of preambles associated with each SSB pattern of the set of SSB patterns; and a transmitter coupled to the processor.
