Abstract
A system described herein may provide a technique for generating one or more predictive models of device availability, which may be used to predict whether a given device will be able to be reached via one or more networks to receive information, such as Over-the-Air (“OTA”) updates. The predictive models may be based on, for example, radio frequency (“RF”) metrics, device availability metrics, and timing offsets between times associated with such RF metrics and availability metrics. For a given device, based on RF metrics associated with the device and further based on a candidate time, the predictive model may be used to determine whether the device will be available at the candidate time.
