Methods and apparatus of monitoring behaviour determination for overlapping ePDCCH and CSI-RS, SSB, PDSCH, and/or PDCCH

A processor for wireless communication, comprising:

• at least one controller coupled with at least one memory and configured to cause the processor to:
• receive a configuration for a transmission of enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel (ePDCCH) with two Transmission Configuration Indication (TCI) states including two Quasi Co-Location Type D (QCL-TypeD) properties;
• and
• determine a monitoring behaviour based on one or more of a QCL-TypeD assumption or a predefined priority rule, at least one symbol of the ePDCCH overlapping with one or more of a transmission of Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS), Synchronization Signal Block (SSB), Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH), or Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH).

A network equipment (NE) for wireless communication, comprising:

• at least one memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the NE to:
• transmit a configuration for a transmission of enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel (ePDCCH) with two Transmission Configuration Indication (TCI) states including two Quasi Co-Location Type D (QCL-TypeD) properties;
• and
• determine a monitoring behaviour of a remote device based on one or more of a QCL-TypeD assumption or a predefined priority rule, at least one symbol of the ePDCCH overlapping with one or more of a transmission of Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS), Synchronization Signal Block (SSB), Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH), or Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH).
