SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REDUCING SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE OF A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE

摘要

Systems and methods are provided for controlling Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) levels in wireless communications devices that utilize at least two transmit (Tx) antennas. In particular, mechanisms are provided to reduce and/or maintain SAR levels to meet regulatory requirements by at least one of the following: controlling energy transmission based upon orientation of the device; controlling use of Tx antennas such that physically separate Tx antennas are utilized; and coordinating the use of Tx antennas based upon time averaged energy considerations.
