Abstract:
1. A method of wireless communication, comprising: monitoring, at a user equipment (UE), downlink control information (DCI) from a first carrier received by the UE, the monitoring being based on at least one first DCI format; receiving, at the UE, a reconfiguration message indicating a transition between downlink control signaling without cross-carrier signaling and downlink control signaling with cross-carrier signaling; monitoring for the at least one first DCI format and for at least one second DCI format indicated by the reconfiguration message, after receiving the reconfiguration message, to detect DCI sent to the UE, wherein the monitoring for the at least one first DCI format and the at least one second DCI format comprises: decoding a first set of downlink control channel element candidates for the UE on the first carrier for the at least one first DCI format, and decoding a second set of downlink control channel element candidates for the UE on a second carrier for the at least one second DCI format.
