In one method, the UE receives configuration of a first serving cell and a second serving cell from a network. The UE receives and/or monitors a first PDCCH transmitted on a scheduling CORESET of the second serving cell, wherein the first PDCCH schedules a first PDSCH transmitted on the first serving cell. The UE receives and/or monitors a second PDCCH transmitted on a scheduling CORESET of the second serving cell, wherein the second PDCCH schedules a second PDSCH transmitted on the second serving cell. The UE receives and/or buffers the second PDSCH via a TCI state used for PDCCH quasi co-location indication of the CORESET with the lowest CORESET-ID in the latest slot in which one or more CORESETs are configured for the UE, before the UE decodes successfully the second PDCCH. The UE does not receive and/or buffer the first PDSCH before the UE decodes successfully the first PDCCH.
