1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having instructions that, when executed, cause processing circuitry to:
determine a repetition value that corresponds to a number of repetitions of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) of a Type 0 common search space set (CSS); and
decode the PDCCH based on the number of repetitions to determine scheduling information for a system information block 1 (SIB1) directed to reduced-capability user equipments (UEs).
