Abstract
A device determines a scrambling sequence for a control channel, wherein the scrambling sequence includes a first set of bit string values for a set of downlink control information (DCI) candidates associated with the control channel, and wherein the scrambling sequence is determined based on an identifier that is exclusive to the device. The device determines, based on the scrambling sequence, a correlation sequence that includes a second set of bit string values. The device identifies, based on the correlation sequence, a subset of DCI candidates of the set of DCI candidates. The device selects at least a portion of the subset of DCI candidates. The device performs one or more actions based on one or more selected DCI candidates.
