1. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, a remaining minimum system information (RMSI) physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) that includes downlink control information (DCI), the DCI indicating a configuration of resources associated with RMSI repetition or RMSI slot aggregation;
receiving, from the base station, a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) that includes a configuration message associated with a particular control resource set (CORESET), the configuration message including one or more fields that indicate a mapping between a value of one or more fields of the DCI and resources, parameters, or both resources and parameters associated with the RMSI repetition or the RMSI slot aggregation; and
monitoring for one or more RMSI messages based on the configuration of resources indicated by the one or more fields of the DCI and the mapping, the monitoring comprising monitoring for multiple repetitions of an RMSI message based on the configuration of resources being associated with RMSI repetition and monitoring for a single RMSI message that is divided across multiple slots based on the configuration of resources being associated with RMSI slot aggregation.
