ANTENNA SELECTION BASED ON MEASUREMENTS IN A WIRELESS DEVICE

摘要

Techniques for supporting a plurality of radios (240) on a wireless device (110) with a limited number of antennas (210) are described. In one design, at least one radio may be selected from among the plurality of radios on the wireless device. Measurements for a plurality of antennas may be obtained. In one design, the measurements may be for pair-wise isolation for different pairs of antennas and/or joint isolation for different sets of at least three antennas. The isolation measurements may be used to determine correlation between antennas. The measurements may be obtained a priori and stored, or periodically, or when triggered by an event. At least one antenna may be selected for the at least one radio from among the plurality of antennas based on the measurements. The at least one radio may be connected to the at least one antenna.
