    Abstract: A method is provided for performing a random access procedure by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system supporting coverage enhancement. The UE repeatedly transmits a physical random access channel (PRACH) signal, determines a random access radio network temporary identifier (RA-RNTI) corresponding to the PRACH signal using system frame number (SFN) information, wherein time index information and frequency index information are not used for determining the RA-RNTI, and monitors downlink control information masked by the determined RA-RNTI. The time index information indicates a subframe starting the repeated transmission of the PRACH signal, the frequency index information indicates a frequency index of the PRACH signal transmitted in the starting subframe, and the SFN information indicates a radio frame starting the repeated transmission of the PRACH signal.
