Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for a repeated pattern over multiple slots in a wireless communication system. A method of operating a user equipment includes receiving a configuration for search space sets, determining a combination (X, Y), and determining a bitmap for a search space set from the search space sets based on the configuration. Each bit in the bitmap is associated with a slot within a group of X consecutive slots. A physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) reception occasion in a slot is present if the associated bit for the slot in the bitmap has a value of '1' and is absent if the associated bit for the slot in the bitmap has a value of “0”. Bits with a value of “1” are consecutive in the bitmap. The method further includes receiving PDCCHs in PDCCH reception occasions that are indicated as present according to the bitmap.
