Abstract
Techniques and apparatuses are described for radio access technology identifiers. In aspects, a base station receives air interface resource prospective usage information associated with communications over a first wireless link of at least two wireless links that use different Radio Access Technologies (RATs). The base station then allocates the sharable air interface resource between the at least two wireless links by analyzing the air interface resource prospective usage information. In aspects, the base station transmits a RAT-identifier-presence indicator that communicates a presence of a RAT identifier by indicating one or more downlink air interface resources used to transmit the RAT identifier, where the RAT identifier indicates the allocation of the sharable air interface resource between the at least two wireless links. The base station then transmits the RAT identifier using the one or more downlink air interface resources indicated by the RAT-identifier-presence indicator.
