Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for a User Equipment (UE) to receive signaling of UE-common Downlink Control Information (DCI) in a set of Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) over a Transmission Time Interval (TTI) are provided. The method includes receiving, from a transmission point, a broadcast signal; determining a first set of PRBs for a first PDCCH based on the broadcast signal; determining a second set of PRBs for a second PDCCH based on a higher layer signaling; receiving, from the transmission point, first DCI on a first PDCCH in the first set of PRBs; and receiving, from the transmission point, second DCI on a second PDCCH in the second set of PRBs. A CRC of the first DCI is associated with an SI-RNTI, a CRC of the second DCI is associated with a C-RNTI, an RS is determined based on an identity of the transmission point, in a case that the RS is received in the first set of PRBs, and the RS is determined based on the higher layer signaling, in a case that the RS is received in the second set of PRBs.
