Abstract
The technologies described herein are generally directed to using a reflective surface to reflect a signal from access point equipment to signal receiving equipment in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. For example, a method described herein can include receiving a request from access point equipment to establish a communications session between the access point equipment and a user equipment. The method can further include identifying a reflective surface to facilitate a connection between the user equipment and the access point equipment, resulting in reflected path information corresponding to a reflected path for the communications session. Finally, the method can include, in response to the request, communicating to the access point equipment, the reflected path information.
