1. A vehicle communication system, comprising:
antennas configured according to a first antenna configuration;
a memory that stores executable components; and
a processor that executes the executable components stored in the memory, wherein the executable components comprise:
a position location component that generates positioning data corresponding to movement of a vehicle, associated with the vehicle communication system, through an environment;
a network monitor component that obtains, from network equipment of a communication network operating in the environment, network data associated with the communication network;
a machine learning component that selects a second antenna configuration, from a group of antenna configurations comprising the first antenna configuration and the second antenna configuration, by classifying the positioning data and the network data according to a model, wherein the model was trained with training data; and
an antenna configuration component that causes the antennas to be configured according to the second antenna configuration, instead of the first antenna configuration, based on the positioning data and the network data and in response to the machine learning component selecting the second antenna configuration.
