10. An apparatus, comprising:
at least one processor configured to cause a user equipment (UE):
receive a configuration message from a base station, wherein the configuration message indicates a time duration of a window for monitoring a downlink message; and
after failing to receive an initial transmission of the downlink message from the base station, monitor for one or more retransmissions of the downlink message, wherein the downlink message is part of a two-step random access procedure, wherein said monitoring includes attempting to decode control information in a first of the one or more retransmissions within the window using a message B (MSGB) Radio Network Temporary Identity (RNTI) that was previously used to attempt decoding of control information in the initial transmission, wherein the MSGB-RNTI is based on location parameters of a physical uplink resource that was used by the UE device to transmit a random access preamble.
