A management system obtains, from a user device, information indicating a power measurement of a beam set that is utilized to communicate with the user device. The beam set includes one or more active beams, of a plurality of beams, that are associated with a single beam identifier. The management system identifies a location of the user device and thereby determines an expected power measurement of the beam set. The management system determines that a difference between the power measurement of the beam set and the expected power measurement of the beam set satisfies (e.g., is greater than or equal to) a difference threshold. The management system therefore causes the beam set to be modified. The management system may use a machine learning model (e.g., a neural network machine learning model) to facilitate modification of the beam set.
