A user equipment (UE) configured for operation in a fifth-generation (5G) new radio (NR) network may perform frequency hopping for physical random access channel (PRACH) repetition for a four-step random access channel (RACH) procedure. The UE may encode a PRACH preamble for multiple PRACH transmissions of the PRACH repetition in accordance with the number of repetitions and each of the multiple PRACH transmissions of the PRACH repetition may be transmitted in accordance with frequency hopping. Each of the multiple PRACH transmissions comprises a same PRACH preamble transmitted in each of a plurality of PRACH occasions.
