Methods and apparatuses for downlink and uplink transmissions in full-duplex systems. A method for operating a user equipment (UE) for receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) includes receiving: first information for a first modulation and coding scheme (MCS) table associated with a first frequency-domain subband in a reception bandwidth on a cell, second information for a second MCS table associated with a second frequency-domain subband in the reception bandwidth, and third information for a condition. At least one of the first and second frequency-domain subbands is one of a subband full-duplex (SBFD) downlink (DL) subband, an SBFD flexible subband, or an SBFD uplink (UL) subband. The method further includes determining whether the condition is valid for reception in a slot or symbol and receiving the PDSCH in the slot or symbol based on the first MCS table when valid and the second MCS table when not valid.
