Negotiating random access channel configurations in an integrated access and backhaul network

A first wireless node for wireless communication, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory communicatively coupled with the at least one processor and storing processor-readable code that, when executed by the at least one processor, is configured to cause the first wireless node to:
• transmit an indication of a random access channel (RACH) configuration associated with the first wireless node;
• and
• receive a request to modify the RACH configuration, wherein the request to modify the RACH configuration is based at least in part on a configuration of one or more communication links associated with an enhanced duplex mode of at least one of the first wireless node or a second wireless node, the RACH configuration corresponding to a communication link of the one or more communication links associated with the enhanced duplex mode.

A method of wireless communication performed by a first wireless node, comprising:

• receiving, at the first wireless node, an indication of a configuration of one or more communication links associated with an enhanced duplex mode of at least one of the first wireless node or a second wireless node;
• receiving, at the first wireless node, an indication of a random access channel (RACH) configuration associated with the second wireless node, the RACH configuration corresponding to a communication link of the one or more communication links associated with the enhanced duplex mode;
• and
• transmitting a request to modify the RACH configuration, wherein the request to modify the RACH configuration is based at least in part on the configuration of the one or more communication links and the RACH configuration.
