User equipment, network node and methods therein for handling preamble transmissions on a random access channel in a radio communications network

The embodiments herein relate to a user equipment (121) and a method performed by the UE (121) for performing preamble transmissions, on a random access channel, to a network node (110). The method comprising: determining (801) a starting subframe for the preamble transmissions based on at least a system frame number (SFN), a number of times (R) the preamble transmissions is to be repeated and a random access channel configuration, and transmitting (802), to the network node (121) the preamble repeatedly starting in the determined starting subframe. The embodiments herein also relate to a network node (110) and a method performed by the network node (110).
