Radio access technology (rat) prioritization on a shared communication medium

A communication apparatus, comprising:

• at least one transceiver configured to monitor access of a first Radio Access Technology (RAT) to a shared communication medium;
• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory, the at least one processor and the at least one memory being configured to generate a priority indicator for the first RAT based on the monitored access, and to coordinate, based on the priority indicator, release of a backhaul connection on the communication medium that is associated with a second RAT.

A communication apparatus, comprising:

• means for monitoring access of a first Radio Access Technology (RAT) to a shared communication medium;
• means for generating a priority indicator for the first RAT based on the monitored access;
• and
• means for coordinating, based on the priority indicator, release of a backhaul connection on the communication medium that is associated with a second RAT.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising code, which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to perform operations for communication, the non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising:

• code for monitoring access of a first Radio Access Technology (RAT) to a shared communication medium;
• code for generating a priority indicator for the first RAT based on the monitored access;
• and
• code for coordinating, based on the priority indicator, release of a backhaul connection on the communication medium that is associated with a second RAT.
