Abstract

The technologies described herein are generally directed to facilitating operation of a system for implementing fifth generation (5G) or other next generation networks. In accordance with one or more embodiments, a method described herein can include identifying, by a device comprising a processor, predicted resource usage of a first antenna covering a geographic zone. Further, the method can include selecting, by the device, a group of geographic siting locations within the geographic zone for potentially siting ones of a group of second antennas. In addition, selecting, by the device, a spatial arrangement in relation to the first antenna, of a subset of the group of geographic siting locations can occur, with a selected spatial arrangement including an arrangement to maintain the predicted resource usage in the condition.
