Managing deactivation or dormancy of a component carrier in cross component carrier or multiple component carrier scheduling

An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
• receive a configuration indicating a first downlink control information (DCI) format and a second DCI format;
• monitor, using a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring behavior, for the first DCI format that indicates a set of resources associated with at least one of a cross component carrier (CC) scheduling or a multiple CC scheduling associated with a first CC and a second CC;
• and
• monitor, using a second PDCCH monitoring behavior based at least in part on a determination that a PDCCH monitoring behavior switch condition is satisfied, for the second DCI format.

An apparatus for wireless communication at a base station, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
• transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) communication using a first plurality of PDSCH resources, wherein the first plurality of resources are indicated by a first downlink control information (DCI) communication having a first DCI format, wherein the first DCI communication indicates a set of resources associated with at least one of a cross component carrier (CC) scheduling or a multiple CC scheduling associated with a first CC and a second CC, wherein the set of resources includes the first plurality of PDSCH resources;
• and
• transmit a second DCI communication having a second DCI format based at least in part on a determination that a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring behavior switch condition is satisfied.
