US 2026/0075619 A1 · DOWNLINK CONTROL INFORMATION DECODING BASED ON ASSUMED FIELD VALUES

Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for allocating downlink channel resource(s) for a device supporting known downlink control information (DCI) values. A method generally includes receiving an indication of one or more DCI fields that indicates to assume a respective value for each of the one or more DCI fields to attempt to decode a downlink control channel candidate; and attempting to decode the downlink control channel candidate to obtain DCI based on the respective value for each of the one or more DCI fields.

Dependent claims

An apparatus configured for wireless communications, comprising:

a processing system that includes one or more processors and one or more memories coupled with the one or more processors, the processing system configured to cause the apparatus to:
receive an indication of one or more downlink control information (DCI) fields that indicates to assume a respective value for each of the one or more DCI fields to attempt to decode a downlink control channel candidate;
and
attempt to decode the downlink control channel candidate to obtain DCI based on the respective value for each of the one or more DCI fields.
