Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate effectuating inter-technology handoffs utilizing pilots. A sector can utilize a first technology to communicate on a first bandwidth. Further, to indicate presence of the first technology, the sector can transmit a pilot on a second bandwidth (e.g., where the second bandwidth can be utilized with a second technology). While a mobile device is communicating data utilizing the second technology upon the second bandwidth, the pilot related to the first technology can be obtained. Based upon the pilot, communication of data (e.g., received and/or transmitted by the mobile device) can be switched to using the first technology on the first bandwidth. Accordingly, the mobile device need not discontinue communicating data with the second technology prior to identifying availability of the first technology and/or initiating handoff to the first technology.
