Abstract: Systems, methods, and software for sharing resources of an air interface. In one embodiment, an access network element communicates with a plurality of devices over an air interface. The access network element identifies a resource sharing window having an MTC-On interval where MTC is allowed, and having an MTC-Off interval where MTC is prohibited. Between a threshold time and an end of the MTC-Off interval, the access network element selects an adjusted Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) for a legacy device of the plurality of devices that is lower than a standard MCS for the legacy device selected based on channel quality information for the legacy device, allocates a set of the MTC radio resources to the legacy device, and schedules a non-MTC transmission for the legacy device on the set of the MTC radio resources based on the adjusted MCS.
