The technologies described herein are generally directed to modeling radio wave propagation in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. For example, a method described herein can include, for a network application, identifying, by a system comprising a processor, a user equipment communicatively coupled to base station equipment via a first network connection implementing a first radio access technology and a second network connection implementing a second radio access technology. The method can further include identifying, by the system, performance characteristics of the first network connection and the second network connection. Further, the method can include, based on the first performance characteristic and the second performance characteristic, facilitating, by the system, allocating, to the user equipment, power for uplink transmission by the first network connection and the second network connection, resulting in an uplink power allocation.
