Abstract
A computer device may include a memory storing instructions and processor configured to execute the instructions to establish a communication channel with a fixed wireless access (FWA) user equipment (UE) device associated with a provider; scan for Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio (NR) antenna beams from a base station associated with the provider; and identify a plurality of 5G NR antenna beams. The processor may be further configured to rank the plurality of 5G NR antenna beams based on a key performance indicator (KPI); select a highest ranked antenna beam, from the plurality of 5G NR antenna beams, via which the FWA UE device is able to connect to the base station associated with the provider while satisfying a threshold requirement associated with the KPI; and use the selected antenna beam to exchange wireless signals between the base station and the FWA UE device.
