Abstract
A method includes receiving, from a network element, a first downlink control information (DCI) message, wherein the first DCI message comprises a plurality of DCI fields. The method also includes determining a first radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) type of a first RNTI that is used for scrambling cyclic redundancy check (CRC) bits of the first DCI message. The method also includes determining a waveform type indicated by a second DCI message, wherein the second DCI message is a most recent DCI message received by the apparatus prior to the first DCI message, and wherein CRC bits of the second DCI message are scrambled by a second RNTI, and wherein the second RNTI is a cell RNTI (C-RNTI). The method also includes decoding the first DCI message based at least in part on the first RNTI type and the waveform type.
