Abstract: Methods, apparatus and systems are provided including a load-adaptive antenna for mobile communication devices. One aspect provides a method of using an antenna within a handheld wireless communication device. The method includes monitoring antenna performance using information received from a sensor within the device. When antenna performance drops below a programmable threshold, such as due to proximity or contact with a user, a signal from a processor is used to actuate a circuit component to change a location of a high impedance portion of the antenna to reduce the effects of the proximity or contact with the user, in various embodiments.
