Abstract: An impedance tuning control apparatus has a processing circuit and an output circuit. The processing circuit determines a first control setting according to a first performance metric, and performs a search operation with a search start point set by the first control setting to find a second control setting according to a second performance metric. The second performance metric is different from the first performance metric. The output circuit outputs a final control setting to a tuner, wherein the final control setting is derived from the second control setting.
