Embodiments of the present application are related to a method and apparatus for PDCCH repetition. A method according to an embodiment of the present application includes: receiving control channel element (CCE) aggregation level (AL) information in a search space set configuration; determining a scaling factor for each of repetition levels of a maximum repetition number, wherein the maximum repetition number corresponds to a total number of monitor occasions (MOs) within a set of MOs; computing a number of PDCCH candidates to be monitored for each of the repetition levels based on the CCE AL information and the scaling factor for each of the repetition levels; and receiving a control signal on the PDCCH candidates.
