1. A method of controlling blind decoding attempts by a User Equipment (UE) in a telecommunication network, the method comprising:

configuring, by a Base Station (BS), a Search Space (SS) configuration to the UE;

dividing, by the BS, the Downlink Control Information (DCI) s into high priority and low priority DCIs;

scheduling, by the BS, high priority Downlink Control Information (DCIs) prior to low priority DCIs;

monitoring, by the UE, for a DCI in SS based on the SS configuration;

determining, by the UE, if an indicator for a last DCI with high priority is received; and

resuming, by the UE, the monitoring for the DCI in the SS when the indicator for the last DCI with high priority is not received, and not monitoring for DCIs with low priority when the indicator for the last DCI with high priority is received and it is determined that the UE can afford loss of the remaining DCIs with low priority.
