Abstract
Wireless communications systems and methods related to control resource set (CORESET) configuration for narrowband new radio (NR) are provided. A user equipment (UE) performs physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring in a first portion of a CORESET. The first portion is within a channel bandwidth, and the CORESET includes a second portion outside the channel bandwidth. The UE receives a system information block (SIB) based on the PDCCH monitoring.
Claims30
A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
- performing physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring in a first portion of a control resource set (CORESET) including a first set of control channel elements (CCEs), wherein the first portion is within a channel bandwidth, and wherein the CORESET includes a second portion including a second set of CCEs outside the channel bandwidth, wherein the PDCCH monitoring is based on puncturing one or more CCEs of the second set of CCEs based on the channel bandwidth;
- receiving a synchronization signal block (SSB) including an indication of a starting RB offset associated with the CORESET, wherein the starting RB offset comprises a number of RBs relative to the SSB;
- and
- receiving a system information block (SIB) based on the PDCCH monitoring.

A method of wireless communication performed by a base station (BS), the method comprising:
- determining, based on a channel bandwidth, a first portion of a control resource set (CORESET), wherein the first portion is within a channel bandwidth, and wherein the CORESET includes a second portion outside the channel bandwidth;
- transmitting system information block (SIB) scheduling information in the first portion of the CORESET including a reference signal, wherein the transmitting the reference signal comprises:
- puncturing a portion of the reference signal in the second portion of the CORESET;
- and
- increasing a transmit power for the reference signal from a reference transmit power based on the puncturing;
- transmitting a synchronization signal block (SSB) including an indication of a starting RB offset associated with the CORESET, wherein the starting RB offset comprises a number of RBs relative to the SSB;
- and
- transmitting a SIB based on the SIB scheduling information.

A user equipment (UE) comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- perform physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring in a first portion of a control resource set (CORESET) including a first set of control channel elements (CCEs), wherein the first portion is within a channel bandwidth, and wherein the CORESET includes a second portion including a second set of CCEs outside the channel bandwidth, wherein the PDCCH monitoring is based on puncturing one or more CCEs of the second set of CCEs based on the channel bandwidth;
- and
- a transceiver coupled to the processor, wherein the transceiver is configured to:
- receive a synchronization signal block (SSB) including an indication of a starting RB offset associated with the CORESET, wherein the starting RB offset comprises a number of RBs relative to the SSB;
- and
- receive a system information block (SIB) based on the PDCCH monitoring.
