Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for random access procedures in a wireless communication system. A method for operating a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a system information block (SIB) in a downlink bandwidth (DL) part (BWP). The DL BWP is linked to a first uplink (UL) BWP. The SIB includes an indication for one or more UL BWPs. The method further includes transmitting a physical random access channel (PRACH) in a second UL BWP from the one or more UL BWPs. The second UL BWP is different than the first UL BWP.
