1. A method for operating a user equipment device (UE), the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station in a first slot, a scheduling parameter in a downlink control information (DCI) message indicating whether a minimum K0 value, K0_min is changed from a current K0_min value to a second K0_min value starting from a second slot, wherein the minimum K0 value, K0_min, is a minimum slot offset for cross-slot scheduling of corresponding data applicable starting from the second slot subsequent to the first slot;
determining that first control information arriving at or after the second slot uses cross-slot scheduling with the minimum slot offset indicated by the second K0_min value;
receiving, from the base station, the first control information during the second slot; and
determining, based on the first control information, a slot offset, K0 for corresponding data scheduled by the first control information, wherein the slot offset, K0, is greater than or equal to the second K0_min value.
