1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- configuring at least one virtual cell identifier (ID) for a user equipment (UE);
determining a first candidate for an enhanced physical downlink control channel (ePDCCH) for the UE;
determining a first virtual cell ID for the first candidate;
scrambling the ePDCCH based on the first virtual cell ID; and
transmitting, to the UE, the scrambled ePDCCH using the first candidate.

Abstract
A method of wireless communication includes configuring a virtual cell identifier (ID) for a user equipment (UE). The method determines a first candidate for an enhanced physical downlink control channel (ePDCCH) for the UE. The method also determines a first virtual cell ID for the first candidate. Furthermore, the method scrambles the ePDCCH based on the first virtual cell ID and transmits, to the UE, the scrambled ePDCCH using the first candidate.
