  • Publication number: 20260051942
    Abstract: A method, user equipment (UE), and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for wireless communications are provided. The UE includes a first path including a first radio frequency (RF) transceiver and a first antenna connected to the first RF transceiver, a second path including a second RF transceiver and a second antenna connected to the second RF transceiver, and a processor coupled to the first and second RF transceivers. The method comprising: determining, by the processor, a first signal quality of a first signal received via the first antenna and the first RF transceiver; determining, by the processor, a second signal quality of a second signal received via the second antenna and the second RF transceiver; and selecting, based on a comparison between the first signal quality and the second signal quality, at least one of the first transceiver and the second transceiver for wirelessly communicating RF signals.

  • Patent number: 12212348
    Abstract: A system for controlling an impedance matching circuitry can include an antenna, a receiving or transmitting circuitry, an impedance matching circuitry, a circuitry, and a controller. The impedance matching circuitry can be coupled between the antenna and the receiving or transmitting circuitry. The circuitry can be configured to set a value of an impedance of the impedance matching circuitry. The controller can be configured to determine, based on a state of an electronic device, that the electronic device is configured to perform one or more functions with one or more of a satellite radio navigation signal at a first or a second frequency, a wireless local area network signal at a third or a fourth frequency, or a personal area network signal at a fifth or a sixth frequency. The controller can be configured to control, in response to a determination of the state of the electronic device, the circuitry.

  • Publication number: 20240289827
    Abstract: This disclosure describes a market segment analysis (MSA) system that facilitates a cluster analysis of market segment data and performance metrics to identify data patterns between individual market segments within a designated market region. Particularly, the MSA system may quantify current performance of existing vendor product or service offerings within a market segment relative to historical performance of the vendor product or service offering within the market segment. Further, the MSA system may quantify current performance of a vendor product or service offering relative to current peer performance of the same or substantially similar vendor product or service offerings within additional market segments. The MSA system may recommend one or more additional market segments for an offering of the vendor product or service. Alternatively, or additionally, the MSA system may recommend one or more vendor product or service offering(s) for a target market segment of a designated market region.

  • Publication number: 20050052324
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method for reducing magnetic field in near-field by presenting high impedance at an operating frequency band are disclosed. A conducting element (112), which is suspended substantially parallel to a first side (104) of a printed circuit board (102) of a wireless portable communication device (100) over an electrically grounded conductor (116), forms a reactive element. The reactive element provides high impedance at operating frequencies of the wireless portable communication device and diverts radio frequency currents from the first side of the printed circuit board to the second side of the printed circuit board such that a magnetic field produced by the radio frequency currents on the first side of the printed circuit board is reduced in the near-field.
