    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a base station may determine a transmission configuration for a first random access message based at least in part on one or more parameters associated with a target base station for initiating a backhaul connection. The transmission configuration may include information associated with a physical random access channel (PRACH) resource associated with transmitting the first random access message. The PRACH resource differs from a PRACH resource associated with a transmission of a random access message by a user equipment. The base station may transmit the first random access message using the transmission configuration. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure provide techniques for random access channel (RACH) power control, including for message (MSGA) transmission by a user equipment (UE) for two-step RACH procedure. Certain aspects provide a method for wireless communication generally including determining a transmit power for transmitting a first message to a base station (BS) as part of a two-step RACH procedure, the first message comprising a first part and a second part. Determining the transmit power comprises determining a first transmit power for transmitting the first part based on a first function having parameters including a power ramping counter and a power ramping step. Determining the transmit power further comprises determining a second transmit power for transmitting the second part based on a second function having parameters including the power ramping counter and the power ramping step. The method further includes incrementing the power ramping counter based on transmitting the first message.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for system information (SI) for access and backhaul. An access node (AN) may provide SI to devices within its cell indicating communication procedure configurations. The AN may provide SI to devices that is specific to whether the communication procedure is an access procedure or a backhaul procedure. The AN may transmit a common master information block (MIB) directing the devices within its cell to a search space in order to receive the remaining SI. The search space may be shared between access devices and backhaul devices or alternatively may be separate between access and backhaul devices. The remaining SI may not be shared between access and backhaul devices. The devices may determine different configurations as defined by the SI from the AN for communications procedures based on whether the procedure is an access procedure or a backhaul procedure.

    Abstract: Backhaul resources may be allocated to different wireless communication links between different base stations, and local redistribution of resources among base stations may be utilized to account for variations in signal quality and/or variations in traffic experienced by different nodes of the backhaul network. A first access node function (ANF) may determine a need for additional backhaul resources, and may transmit a request message to one or more user equipment functions (UEFs) for additional backhaul resources. A UEF that receives the request message may forward the request to an associated second ANF. The second ANF, if it has backhaul resources available that the first ANF can use, may send a response to the first ANF, via the associated UEF, and the first ANF may use the additional resources that were originally allocated to the second ANF.
