Original Abstract Submitted
Methods and apparatus for adjusting a random access response window in a non-terrestrial network are provided. A method comprises receiving information that includes a gNodeB type parameter and a random access response window length parameter. The method further comprises determining that a gNodeB is a non-terrestrial gNodeB. The method further comprises determining a minimum round trip time (RTT). The method further comprises determining a time offset for a random access response window. The method further comprises determining a length of the random access response window based on the received random access response window length parameter and a non-terrestrial network based table. The method further comprises setting the random access response window based on the time offset. The method further comprises monitoring a downlink control channel on monitoring occasions within the random access response window.
