Abstract: A mobile communication device including a processor configured to: retrieve a first isolation metric from a lookup table between an antenna and a first further antenna; retrieve a second isolation metric from a lookup table between the antenna and the second further antenna; determine that the second isolation metric is greater than the first isolation metric; and switch transmitting the signal from the first further antenna to the second further antenna.

Abstract: A wireless modem device. The device includes a plurality of transceivers, a plurality of antenna ports, a plurality of RF multiplexers, and a plurality of switches. Each transceiver is configured to process a radio frequency (RF) signal in a specific frequency band. Each antenna port is coupled to one of a plurality of antennas. Each RF multiplexer is configured to split an RF signal received via a common port of the RF multiplexer to one of frequency-specific ports of the RF multiplexer based on a frequency band of the RF signal and combine RF signals received via the frequency-specific ports into the common port, wherein the common port of each RF multiplexer is coupled to one of the antenna ports. Each switch is configurable by software to couple one of the transceivers to one of the antenna ports.

Abstract: A method comprising: retrieving a predefined power threshold; determining a transmission power of a transmitting antenna, wherein the transmitting antenna is actively transmitting a signal; retrieving a predefined transmission time interval; determining that the transmission power exceeds the predefined power threshold; determining a duration of transmitting the signal; comparing the duration with the predefined transmission time interval; and switching transmitting the signal from the transmitting antenna to a further antenna when the duration equals the predefined transmission time interval.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for implementing host-centric antenna control. An apparatus may include a plurality of antennas for wireless transmission and reception, a wireless modem for processing a signal for wireless transmission and reception via the antennas, a processor (host), and an antenna tuner circuitry. The processor is configured to run an antenna tuner software module configured to generate a control signal to configure at least one antenna. The antenna tuner circuitry is configured to switch or tune the at least one antenna based on the control signal. The apparatus may include at least one sensor coupled to the processor. The antenna tuner software module may be configured to generate the control signal based on inputs from the at least one sensor. The antenna tuner software module may be configured to receive RF parameters from the wireless modem and generate the control signal based on the RF parameters.
