Transmitting and receiving radio signals with tunable antennas tuned based on throughput performance

Abstract:

An apparatus of a user equipment (UE) to perform tuning of a tunable antenna may comprise baseband circuitry and radio frequency (RF) circuitry. The baseband circuitry may determine an indication of throughput performance of a tunable antenna for the UE while the tunable antenna is in a first state. The RF circuitry may select a second state for the tunable antenna based on the indication of throughput performance for the tunable antenna. The second state may be selected to improve throughput performance of a data stream for the UE. The RF circuitry may also generate a control signal to transition the tunable antenna to the second state.
