A device may determine that a first antenna of a user equipment is transmitting at a maximum transmission power value, and may determine a received signal power value associated with a wireless signal transmitted via the first antenna of the user equipment. The device may compare a target signal power value and the received signal power value, and may determine that a switching threshold value is satisfied. The device may provide, to the user equipment, an instruction to transmit via a second antenna based on determining that the switching threshold value is satisfied.
