Abstract
An internet of things (IoT) non-terrestrial network (NTN) device user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes receiving circuitry configured to receive narrowband physical random access channel (NPRACH) configurations including NPRACH resource configuration, repetition parameters, orthogonal cover code (OCC) multiplexing methods and OCC multiplexing factors. The receiving circuitry is also configured to receive a narrowband physical downlink control channel (NPDCCH) downlink control information (DCI) format N1 and cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a random access-radio network temporary identifier (RA-RNTI) for random access response (RAR) in an RA response window. The receiving circuitry is also configured to determine an OCC index indicated in the NPDCCH or the RAR, and compare the determined OCC index with a selected OCC index. Transmitting circuitry is configured to select an NPRACH resource, randomly select an OCC index for an OCC multiplexing and transmit NPRACH preambles.
