Methods and apparatus for enhanced information reporting

Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate generally to communication systems, and more particularly, to enhanced reporting by user equipment (UE). An example method generally includes receiving an information request from a network node and in response, sending a message to the network node, wherein the message comprises information that allows the network node to determine a starting coverage enhancement (CE) level of the UE.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for enhanced reporting in wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
 receiving an information request, relating to a random access procedure or a connection establishment procedure associated with the random access procedure, from a network node; and   in response to the received information request, sending a message to the network node, wherein the message comprises information that allows the network node to determine a starting coverage enhancement (CE) level of the random access procedure.
