1. A method of managing multiple transmission and reception point (M-TRP) communications, comprising:
receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a plurality of physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) communications, wherein:
a first subset of the plurality of PDSCH communications is associated with a first TRP, and
a second subset of the plurality of PDSCH communications is associated with a second TRP different from the first TRP;
selecting a first set of one or more PDSCH communications to decode and excluding at least one of the one or more PDSCH communications from decoding, by applying a first management process for the first subset of PDSCH communications;
selecting a second set of one or more PDSCH communications to decode by applying a second management process for the second subset of PDSCH communications; and
decoding the first set of one or more PDSCH communications to decode and the second set of one or more PDSCH communications to decode.
