Abstract

Generic devices, systems and methods for multiple radio access technologies (RATs) are described. A platform for allocating radio resources among a plurality of radio access technology (RAT) modules can include, for example, radio hardware configured to transmit and receive radio signals over an air interface using the plurality of RATs; and a radio planner connected to the radio hardware and configured to receive radio time reservation requests, each of which requests includes a priority value for the radio time reservation request, and to determine whether to grant or deny each of the radio time reservation requests based at least in part on the priority values.
