Broadcast traffic scheduling across multiple radio access technologies

A method for wireless communication, comprising:

• receiving, from a wireless modem, a broadcast session notification message that indicates a set of broadcast service parameters associated with a broadcast service that is provided via the wireless modem using a first wireless network that uses a first radio access technology;
• mapping, based at least in part on one or more broadcast service parameters of the set of broadcast service parameters, the broadcast service to a background broadcast access category queue at a scheduler of a second wireless network that uses a second radio access technology, wherein the first wireless network is different than the second wireless network, and the first radio access technology is different than the second radio access technology;
• receiving, from the wireless modem, broadcast data and a broadcast indication associated with the broadcast service that is provided using the first wireless network and the first radio access technology, wherein the broadcast data is to be transmitted to a plurality of clients via the scheduler of the second wireless network using the second radio access technology;
• and
• buffering, based at least in part on the broadcast indication, the broadcast data in the background broadcast access category queue for transmission to the plurality of clients via the second wireless network in accordance with one or more threshold values corresponding to an amount of broadcast data in the background broadcast access category queue.

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• a processor;
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• receive, via one or more wireless communications of a first wireless network using a first radio access technology, broadcast data associated with a broadcast service, wherein the broadcast data is to be provided to a plurality of clients via a scheduler of a second wireless network using a second radio access technology in accordance with a background broadcast access category queue at the scheduler of the second wireless network that uses the second radio access technology, and wherein the first wireless network is different than the second wireless network, the first radio access technology is different than the second radio access technology, and the broadcast service has a set of broadcast service parameters;
• transmit, to the scheduler of the second wireless network, a broadcast session notification message that indicates one or more broadcast service parameters of the set of broadcast service parameters;
• and
• transmit the broadcast data to the scheduler for transmission to the plurality of clients via the second wireless network in accordance with one or more threshold values corresponding to an amount of broadcast data in the background broadcast access category queue, wherein a broadcast indication is transmitted with the broadcast data that indicates the broadcast data is associated with the broadcast service.
