Abstract

Disclosed subject matter relates to techniques for allowing multiple transmit/receive assignments to share antenna resources in an efficient manner. The techniques may be used with, for example, transmit/receive assignments that are non-deterministic in nature. In some implementations, transmit/receive assignments each have a corresponding priority value. Transmit/receive assignments are permitted to contend for available antenna resources based, at least in part, on priority.
