Abstract

Disclosed herein is a method to determine a geolocation that includes receiving, by a processor, from a base station (BS), radio predictors, a user equipment (UE) location history, and a geolocation of a first UE for which a minimization of drive test (MDT) mode is activated, radio predictors and a UE location history of a second UE for which the MDT mode is not activated, and cell physical parameters. The method includes training, by the processor, a machine learning (ML) model at least based on the radio predictors, the UE location history, and the geolocation of the first UE, and the cell physical parameters. The method includes executing, by the processor, the ML model to determine the azimuth of the second UE and providing, by the processor, to a downstream application, a geolocation of the second UE at least based on the azimuth and the TA of the second UE.
