Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a network entity determines a location of a target base station and a location of at least one reference device, determines an angle-of-arrival (AoA) measurement of one or more reference signals received by at least one antenna array of the target base station from the at least one reference device, determines an expected AoA between the at least one antenna array and the at least one reference device based on the location of the target base station and the location of the at least one reference device, and determines an orientation offset of the at least one antenna array based on a difference between the expected AoA and the AoA measurement.
