ENABLING NEW PHYSICAL DOWNLINK CONTROL CHANNEL AGGREGATION LEVELS FOR REDUCED CAPABILITY USER EQUIPMENT

摘要

A method (1200) performed by a wireless device (110) for decoding a physical downlink control channel, PDCCH, candidate is provided. The method includes the wireless device being configured (1202) with an aggregation level that is not a power of 2. The aggregation level is a number of control channel elements (CCEs) used per 0PDCCH candidate. The wireless device decodes (1204) at least one PDCCH candidate using the aggregation level that is not a power of 2.
