    Abstract: The disclosure relates to technology beam steering in which one or more antennas are configured to form a beam directed to a first beam direction based on a configuration corresponding to an environment. A change in direction of the beam is identified in response to a change in orientation of user equipment, the change in orientation determined via one or more sensors in the user equipment, and a second beam direction is calculated based on a the first beam direction and the change in orientation of the user equipment. The one or more antennas are then configured by steering the beam to the second beam direction to compensate for the change in orientation of the user equipment.

    Abstract: System and method embodiments are provided for a broadband switchable antenna. The embodiments enable an easily tunable, temporally switchable antenna with good low- and high-band performance with controlled high impedance loci that easily coexists with other wireless device components. In an embodiment, a broadband switchable antenna includes an antenna feed; a high-band antenna arm comprising a first end electrically coupled to an antenna feed and a second end electrically coupled to ground; a switch coupled to the antenna feed at a position proximate to the first end of the high-band antenna arm; and a low-band antenna arm comprising a first end electrically coupled to the switch, wherein the antenna is configured to operate in a high-band mode when the switch is open and to operate in a low-band mode when the switch is closed.

    Abstract: An antenna's resonance frequency is detuned when a part of a human body approaches or contacts the antenna and consequently results in efficiency loss. The antenna may be tuned by changing its total load capacitance such that the antenna's total load capacitance falls within a reference capacitance range of a reference capacitance, where the antenna can operate at or near its pre-determined operating resonance frequency. A tunable capacitor may be coupled to the antenna for tuning the total load capacitance of the antenna.

    Abstract: An apparatus for satisfying Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) compliance criteria including a first capacitance sensor, a second capacitance sensor, a memory, and a processor. The memory is configured to store pre-established proximity regions that include a free space region of proximity based on baseline capacitance measurements obtained from the sensors when no human body is proximate a wireless device and a first region of proximity based on initial capacitance measurements obtained from the sensors when the human body is spaced apart from the wireless device by a first predetermined separation distance. The processor is configured to instruct a radio frequency (RF) transmitter to operate at a first output power when subsequent capacitance measurements received from the sensors are within the free space region of proximity and at a second output power, less than the first output power when the subsequent capacitance measurements are within the first region of proximity.

    Abstract: Embodiments are provided for resolving, at a user equipment (UE), unnecessary frequent consecutive back and forth reselections between the same two or more network cells. In an embodiment method, upon detecting predefined criteria indicating reaching a threshold frequency of reselections between the same cells, the UE switches to a defined mobility state reducing the frequency of reselections between the same cells. In accordance with the defined mobility state, the method increases a waiting time for cell reselection. The predefined criteria includes detecting the UE in a defined Static-idle state, detecting a serving cell of the UE and a strongest neighbor cell having approximately equal signal quality for a defined duration or a defined number of consecutive measurements, and detecting a number of consecutive reselections between the same cells exceeding a defined minimum threshold.
