Systems, apparatus, and methods for antenna selection

A method implemented in a wireless communication apparatus, the method comprising:

• receiving an indication of at least one of priority levels of data for each one of a plurality of transmit circuits and a detected operating mode of the wireless communication apparatus, each of the plurality of transmit circuits being configured to transmit according to a different radio access technology;
• and
• selectively switching each of the transmit circuits of the plurality of transmit circuits to transmit wireless communications via a corresponding one of a plurality of antennas based on the priority levels of data for each of the transmit circuits and the detected operating mode of the wireless communication apparatus, and further based on antenna preference of each of the transmit circuits, wherein each antenna preference is based on at least one of:
• power limits of each of the plurality of transmit circuits, or a transmit power level of at least one of the plurality of transmit circuits.
