Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 6:
7. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving an indication of an initial downlink bandwidth for the UE;
receiving, via a master information block (MIB), configuration information for a control resource set (CORESET) associated with physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring for initial access, wherein the configuration information indicates a frequency domain resource allocation for the CORESET, and wherein the frequency domain resource allocation for the CORESET is at least partially outside of the initial downlink bandwidth; and
receiving one or more PDCCH messages associated with the CORESET based at least in part on modifying a resource mapping of the CORESET, the modification of the resource mapping of the CORESET including:
performing control channel element (CCE) to resource element group (REG) mapping using a quantity of available resource blocks, or a quantity of available CCEs, in the initial downlink bandwidth;
modifying a control channel element (CCE) to resource element group (REG) mapping type to a non-interleaving mapping type; or
modifying a frequency range associated with the initial downlink bandwidth to include the frequency domain resource allocation for the CORESET in accordance with receiving a synchronization signal block (SSB) associated with the PDCCH monitoring for initial access.
