Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for implementing one or more ECCE index determinations for MPDCCH in special subframes in eMTC using communications systems operating according to new radio (NR) technologies. For example, a method for wireless communications may include determining a type of channel is scheduled to be transmitted across multiple subframes, determining a first subframe of the multiple subframes is of a first subframe type that is different than a second subframe type of one or more other subframes of the multiple subframes, and determining resources for a decoding candidate of a channel based, at least in part, on the first subframe type and the second subframe type.
