In some cases, the downlink transmission may be scheduled for a set of resources that overlap in time with a SS block for the carrier. The base station may transmit downlink transmissions within the BWP using transmission attributes configured for the BWP and/or using SS block transmission attributes, depending on capabilities of the UE, on whether the time resources of the downlink transmission that are FDMed with the SS block, etc.
