Facilitating improved performance of multiple downlink control channels in advanced networks (e.g., 4G, 5G, 6G, and beyond) is provided herein. Operations of a system can comprise scheduling multiple data traffic channels for a user equipment device. Scheduling the multiple data channels can comprise scheduling a first data traffic channel of the multiple data traffic channels based on a legacy scheduling procedure and scheduling a second data traffic channel of the multiple data traffic channels based on an iterative procedure. The operations can also comprise transmitting, to the user equipment device, first information via multiple downlink control channels and transmitting, to the user equipment device, second information via the multiple data traffic channels.
