Claim 20:
21. An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
means for transmitting UE capability information that indicates UE support for blind decoding of repetition-based physical downlink control channel candidates, wherein the UE capability information is indicative of a blind decoding count mode which indicates a quantity by which a blind decode count is incremented for each blind decoding attempt of repetition-based physical downlink control channel candidates, the quantity selected between a first quantity of repetitions of a physical downlink control channel candidate and a second quantity that is greater than the first quantity; and
means for monitoring for one or more repetitions of a downlink control information by attempting to blind decode one or more repetitions of the physical downlink control channel candidate in accordance with a maximum blind decode count and the blind decoding count mode.
