1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having instructions that, when executed, cause processing circuitry to:
determine a remaining minimum system information (RMSI) subcarrier spacing (SCS) for a multiplexing pattern between a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block (SSB) and remaining minimum system information (RMSI) to be utilized for transmission to a UE that is to operate in millimeter wave (mmWave);
determine a SSB SCS for the multiplexing pattern;
determine that the SSB SCS is less than the RMSI SCS;
determine a number of symbols of the multiplexing pattern to be utilized for the RMSI based on the SSB SCS being less than the RMSI SCS; and
provide an indication of the number of symbols to the UE.
