1. A network entity comprising:
a memory; and
a processor operably coupled to the memory, the processor configured to:
determine a first transmit receive point (TRP) rank and antenna ordering for a first TRP in a wireless network;
determine a second TRP rank and antenna ordering for a second TRP in the wireless network;
based on the first TRP rank and antenna ordering and the second TRP rank and antenna ordering, determine a hybrid joint transmission (Hybrid-JT) signal for transmission from the wireless network to a user equipment (UE), the Hybrid-JT signal comprising a diversity joint transmission (Div-JT) component and a multiplexing joint transmission (Mux-JT) component; and
instruct the wireless network to transmit the Hybrid-JT signal to the UE, wherein the Hybrid-JT signal is transmitted to the UE from the first TRP and the second TRP.
