A first wireless access point uses a first radio access technology in a heterogeneous wireless network. The heterogeneous wireless network includes the first wireless access point and a second wireless access point using a second radio access technology. The first wireless access point determines one or more performance characteristics of traffic management and traffic between a first client device and the first wireless access point using the first radio access technology and the second wireless access point using the second radio access technology. The first wireless device (access point or some other network device) calculates one or more traffic indicators based on these performance characteristics. The first wireless device further communicates at least one of the one or more traffic indicators to the second wireless access point. The communicated traffic indicators are for use by the second wireless access point to schedule radio resources of the second RAT.
