Cross-carrier scheduling in the presence of multi-downlink control information (DCI)(multi-DCI) based multi-transmit-receive point (MTRP)

A method of managing cross-carrier scheduling by a processor of a network computing device, comprising:

• transmitting a cross-carrier scheduling configuration of a scheduled cell to a wireless device, wherein the cross-carrier scheduling configuration indicates one or more associated Control Resource Set (CORESET) pools of a scheduling cell configured to schedule the scheduled cell, wherein the cross-carrier scheduling configuration indicates two of the one or more associated CORESET pools of the scheduling cell are both CORESET pools of the scheduled cell;
• transmitting downlink control information (DCI) for the scheduled cell from the scheduling cell to the wireless device;
• and
• receiving joint feedback from the wireless device for Type-1 hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) operations for a communication associated with scheduled cell.

A wireless device, comprising:

• a radio resource;
• and
• a processor connected to the radio resource, the processor configured to:
• receive a cross-carrier scheduling configuration of a scheduling cell indicating two Control Resource Set (CORESET) pools configured for a scheduled cell;
• receive downlink control information (DCI) from scheduling cell that schedules a communication on the scheduled cell;
• transmit the communication or monitor for the communication on the scheduled cell based on the DCI;
• and
• perform Type-1 hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) operations for the communication on both CORESET pools, both CORESET pools including the scheduled cell.
