1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a wireless device, configuration parameters indicating:
a first transport block (TB) size threshold of a first random access (RA) type; and
a second TB size threshold of a second RA type;
selecting, for transmitting a data unit and among the first RA type and the second RA type, an RA type based on a comparison among a size of the data unit, the first TB size threshold of the first RA type, and the second TB size threshold of the second RA type;
multiplexing the data unit with one or more padding bits of the RA type onto a TB, wherein a quantity of the one or more padding bits of the RA type is determined based on a difference between the size of the data unit and a TB size threshold corresponding to the RA type; and
transmitting, using an RA procedure associated with the RA type, the TB comprising the data unit.
