Abstract

The technologies described herein are generally directed to generating a propagation model based on sampling by user equipment in idle mode in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. An example method can include, based on a first location in a geographic area of a signal measurement measured by a user equipment in an idle mode, and a transmission location of the signal, estimating an estimated first path loss value. The method can further include, based on the estimated first path loss value and a second path loss value of a second carrier signal received from the carrier signal source, determining an antenna pattern of the carrier signal source. Further, the method can include based on the antenna pattern, generating a propagation model for the carrier signal source.
