Abstract
A method of handling coverage enhancement for a user equipment (UE) of a wireless communication system includes determining whether the UE is in an enhanced coverage mode according to the number of repetitions of a downlink transmission based on which the UE successfully decodes a system information block (SIB); and performing an uplink transmission with repetitions or without repetitions based on whether the UE is in the enhanced coverage mode.
