Abstract
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may determine a coreset of time and frequency resources within a control region of a coreset bandwidth. In one aspect, the coreset bandwidth may be based on a minimum bandwidth configuration associated with one or more UEs in a set of UEs. The apparatus may also transmit a PDCCH as a single-carrier waveform via the coreset of time and frequency resources. In one aspect, the PDCCH may be transmitted to each UE in the set of UEs using the coreset bandwidth.

A method of wireless communication of a base station, comprising:
- determining a control resource set (coreset) bandwidth from a minimum bandwidth configuration of one or more user equipments (UEs) in a set of UEs;
- determining a coreset of time and frequency resources within a control region of the coreset bandwidth, the coreset bandwidth being the minimum bandwidth configuration of the one or more UEs in the set of UEs, wherein at least one coreset resource for each of the one or more UEs is located within the corset bandwidth;
- transmitting a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) as a single-carrier waveform via the coreset of time and frequency resources, the PDCCH being transmitted to each UE in the set of UEs using the coreset bandwidth, wherein the PDCCH includes coreset control information for each of the one or more UEs;
- and
- transmitting a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) associated with the PDCCH within a first symbol period of the control region in the coreset bandwidth,
- wherein the transmitting the PDCCH further comprises transmitting data of the PDCCH in a second symbol period of the control region in the coreset bandwidth.
