1. A method for wireless communications by a user equipment (UE), comprising:

receiving radio resource control (RRC) signaling configuring the UE to monitor a 0, 1, 2, or 3 bit carrier indicator field (CIF) and a 0, 1, or 2 bit rate-matching field for at least a first downlink control information (DCI) format from a set of DCI formats comprising DCI formats including 0, 1, 2, or 3 bit CIFs and 0, 1, or 2 bit rate-matching indicator fields, wherein a total number of bits for a CIF for the first DCI format is based on whether the first DCI format is for scheduling an uplink transmission or for scheduling a downlink transmission;

monitoring a DCI of the first DCI format, wherein the DCI schedules the uplink or downlink transmission; and

communicating based on the DCI.
