Power class based coverage enhancement level selection

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code, where the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to at least:
• receive, by a user equipment, signaling comprising at least one of a plurality of reference signal received power threshold levels;
• determine, by the user equipment, a power class parameter associated with the user equipment;
• and
• select, based on at least the at least one of the plurality of reference signal received power threshold levels and said power class parameter, a resource set of one or more resource sets to perform a network access procedure with a communication network.

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code, where the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to at least:
• transmit, by a network node, signaling comprising at least one of a plurality of reference signal received power threshold levels;
• receive, at the network node, uplink transmissions from a user equipment via a network access procedure on a resource set of one or more resource sets selected by the user equipment based on at least the at least one of the plurality of reference signal received power threshold levels and a power class parameter associated with the user equipment.
