Aspects described herein relate to a network for providing air-to-ground wireless communication in various cells. The network includes a first base station array, each base station of which includes a respective first antenna array defining a directional radiation pattern that is oriented in a first direction, wherein each base station of the first base station array is disposed spaced apart from another base station of the first base station array along the first direction by a first distance. The network also includes a similar second base station array where the second base station array extends substantially parallel to the first base station array and is spaced apart from the first base station array by a second distance to form continuous and at least partially overlapping cell coverage areas between respective base stations of the first and second base station arrays.

Concepts and technologies are disclosed for creating and using cell clusters. Cellular network data associated with a cellular network can be obtained. The cellular network data can include configuration data associated with a cell of the cellular network and a performance indicator associated with the cellular network. A number of cell clusters to be generated can be determined and the cell clusters can be generated. The cell clusters can include a cell cluster that can represent multiple cells including the cell. A model that represents the cell cluster can be trained. An input cluster that represents multiple inputs can be generated. The inputs can be associated with the multiple cells and the input cluster can include a value. The value can be provided as input to the model to obtain a predicted output associated with the cell cluster.

A method of operating a communicator includes operating a first receiver of a plurality of receivers on a first channel of a series of channels. A second receiver of the plurality of receivers is operated on a second channel of the series of channels. A third receiver of the plurality of receivers is operated on a third channel of the series of channels. The second receiver that operates on the second channel includes a reception overlap period of about 25% to about 75% with the first receiver that operates on the first channel and a reception overlap period of about 25% to about 75% with the third receiver that operates on the third channel.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for control channel resource grouping and spatial relation configuration. Aspects of the present disclosure provide a method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE). The method generally includes receiving an indication of one or more groupings of one or more control channel resources within a configured bandwidth. Each grouping is associated with a spatial relation. The UE applies a spatial relation for a control channel transmission using one or more control channel resources in a grouping of the one or more groupings. The grouping is associated with the spatial relation.

Facilitating assignment of physical cell identifier under technological and operational constraints provided herein. Operations of a system include identifying a first group of network equipment that includes a first relationship status and a second group of network equipment that includes a second relationship status different than the first relationship status. The operations also can include determining a first assignment of first identifiers of a group of identifiers for the first group of network equipment based on a first application of first assignment conflicts. Further, the operations can include determining a second assignment of second identifiers of the group of identifiers for the second group of network equipment based on a second application of second assignment conflicts. In an example, determining of the first assignment of first identifiers includes resolving module-k conflicts among the first group of network equipment.
