A system facilitating dynamic layer mapping with multiple downlink control channels wireless communication system is provided herein. In one example, a method, comprises: determining, by a BS device, for a selected mobile device, a type of downlink control channel configuration to transmit to a mobile device; and in response to determining to transmit multiple downlink control channels as the type of downlink control channel configuration, identifying a layer to couple to the downlink control channel configuration. Determining the type of downlink control channel configuration to transmit can comprise: determining to transmit multiple downlink control channels if a rank is higher than a defined value; and determining to transmit a single control channel in lieu of transmitting the multiple control channels if a rank is less than or equal to the defined value. The method can also include scheduling the layer for transmission to the mobile device.
