Abstract: Dynamic antenna switching based on weighted signal to noise ratio (SNR). A wireless device may include multiple antennas. SNR at each active antenna may be calculated. An antenna-specific weight may be applied to each antenna's SNR. The antenna-specific weights may further be radio specific and/or transmit or receive specific in some cases. Antenna selection (possibly just for a specific radio and/or for transmit or receive operations, depending on the specificity of the antenna weights), including potentially switching which antenna is used, may be based on the resulting weighted SNR values for each antenna. If the antenna-specific weights are radio specific and/or transmit or receive operation specific, the method may be performed multiple times with different antenna-specific weights to select antenna(s) for different radios and/or for other operations.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with wireless circuitry for transmitting and receiving wireless signals. Control circuitry may be used to adjust transmit power levels for the wireless signals and other settings for the wireless circuitry. The electronic device may be operated in conjunction with an external accessory. The accessory may be equipment that includes a dock connector, a case to enclose the electronic device, equipment that is coupled to the electronic device using a cable, or other external electronic equipment. An identifier may be stored in the accessory. The impact of the accessory on the wireless performance of the electronic device may be characterized and associated with the identifier. During operation of the electronic device, the electronic device may adjust transmit power levels and other settings based on the identifier of the accessory and based on sensor data, user input, and other information.
