Methods and apparatus for power control based antenna switching

摘要

A method for selecting an antenna is described. The method may include transmitting using a first antenna with a first metric and a radio frequency (RF) chain for a first dwelling period. The method may include switching to transmitting using a second antenna with a second metric for a first testing period. The second antenna may use the same RF chain as the first antenna. The first metric may be compared with the second metric to determine an optimal antenna. The optimal antenna may be selected.
