Abstract
Techniques and apparatuses are described for enhanced uplink spectrum sharing. A base station communicates, to a user equipment (UE) an air interface resource configuration for a second air interface resource allocated to a second cell that uses a second radio access technology (RAT) and implemented by the base station. The base station receives a first air interface resource configuration for a first air interface resource allocated to a first cell that uses a first RAT, where the first air interface resource configuration differs from the second air interface resource configuration. In aspects, the base station communicates the first air interface resource configuration to the UE. Based on receiving a low-utilization indication for the first air interface resource, the base station directs the UE to utilize the first air interface resource for transmitting uplink communications using the second RAT.
