Summary:Methods and apparatuses for determining spatial settings during a random access procedure. A method for operating a user equipment includes determining a first physical random access channel (PRACH) preamble for transmission in a first PRACH occasion (RO) using a first spatial setting and determining a second PRACH preamble for transmission in a second RO using a second spatial setting. The method further includes transmitting the first PRACH preamble in the first RO using the first spatial setting and transmitting the second PRACH preamble in the second RO using the second spatial setting. The method further includes receiving a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) scheduling a reception of a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) using a third spatial setting associated with the first spatial setting, or a second PDCCH scheduling a reception of a second PDSCH using a fourth spatial setting associated with the second spatial setting.
