Abstract

A base station maps physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates and PDCCH transmissions for multi-transmission reception point (TRP) operation. The base station determines that a control resource set (CORESET) is to be shared by at least a first TRP and a second TRP corresponding to a cell of a network, performs resource element group (REG) bundle to virtual REG bundle mapping on a per TRP basis, wherein multiple REG bundles are indexed on the per TRP basis, performs virtual REG bundle interleaving across the first TRP and the second TRP, performs control channel element (CCE) to interleaved REG bundle mapping and transmits downlink control information (DCI) using the CORESET, wherein the CORESET is configured based on, at least, the CCE to interleaved REG bundle mapping.
