Abstract

Facilitation detection of control channels with different transmission time intervals (TTIs) in wireless communications systems is described herein. In one example, a computer-implemented method comprises: monitoring, by a mobile device comprising a processor, a first control channel in the beginning of a first TTI; and receiving, by the mobile device, a first downlink control information (DCI) on the first control channel in the first TTI, wherein information of the first DCI indicates a pattern of a second TTI associated with a second control channel, and wherein the second control channel occurs later than the first control channel and the second TTI is shorter than the first TTI. The computer-implemented method can also comprise determining, by the mobile device, whether to monitor the second control channel of the second TTI based on the information of the first DCI.
