Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for improving the reliability of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmission and reception. In one embodiment, a method performed by a wireless communication device for reception of PDCCH repetitions over multiple control resource sets (CORESETs) in a cellular communications system comprises receiving a configuration of a first CORESET and a second CORESET. The method further comprises receiving, from one or more network nodes, a first repetition of a PDCCH carrying downlink control information (DCI) in the first CORESET and a second repetition of the PDCCH carrying the same DCI in the second CORESET, wherein the first and second repetitions of the PDCCH have either: (a) different channel encoding or (b) a same channel encoding. The method further comprises decoding the DCI based on the first repetition of the PDCCH and/or the second repetition of the PDCCH.
