Abstract

Example methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture (e.g., physical storage media) to facilitate maintaining of antenna connectivity based on communicated geographic information are disclosed. An example method may include receiving, by a device, position information from a base station. The position information may include an altitude associated with the base station. The method may further include determining a positional difference between the device and the base station based at least on the position information. The method may further include configuring an antenna of the device based at least on the positional difference.
