Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparats relating to designs for the remaining minimum system information (RMSI) control resource set (CORESET) and the other system information (OSI) CORESET. In certain aspects, a wireless communication device (e.g., user equipment) is enabled to determine the location of Type0-PDCCH common search space CORESET and the OSI CORESET in the frequency and time domains based on the location of the synchronization signal block (SSB) transmissions in the frequency and time domains. Determining the location of the RMSI CORESET and the OSI CORESET frequency and time resources enables the UE to receive the RMSI CORESET and the OSI CORESET, respectively.
