Abstract: A device may receive location data identifying a location of a network repeater and an identifier of a base station serving the network repeater, and may identify, based on the identifier of the base station, a first set of gNodeBs anchored to the base station. The device may identify, based on the location data, a second set of gNodeBs from a data structure, and may compare the first set of gNodeBs and the second set of gNodeBs to determine a list of gNodeBs included in the first set of gNodeBs and the second set of gNodeBs. The device may rank the list of gNodeBs, based on coverage projection recommendations, to generate a ranked list of gNodeBs, and may receive, from the data structure, configuration parameters for the ranked list of gNodeBs. The device may provide the configuration parameters for the ranked list of gNodeBs to the network repeater.

Abstract: A device can include a first ground element to be electrically connected to a module including a cellular antenna. The first ground element and the module can be stackable. The cellular antenna can have a first ground plane provided by a second ground element included in the module. The first ground element can provide a second ground plane for the cellular antenna when the first ground element is electrically connected to the cellular antenna. The second ground plane can be larger than the first ground plane. Radio performance of the cellular antenna with regard to a cellular network is enhanced when the cellular antenna is electrically connected to the first ground element based on the second ground plane.
