Abstract:
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, comprising computer instructions which, responsive to being executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising: identifying an order of execution of a plurality of tuning algorithms, wherein each of the plurality of tuning algorithms controls one of a tunable reactive element, a control interface, or both of one of a plurality of circuit components of a radio frequency circuit of a communication device, wherein the plurality of tuning algorithms function as independently operating closed loop algorithms that perform a sample measurement and tune a corresponding one of the plurality of circuit components of the radio frequency circuit according to the sample measurement; executing a first tuning algorithm of the plurality of tuning algorithms according to the order of execution; detecting a stability condition of the first tuning algorithm; executing a remainder of the plurality of tuning algorithms to determine whether the first tuning algorithm has affected a tuning state of each the remainder of the plurality of tuning algorithms; and executing a second tuning algorithm of the plurality of tuning algorithms responsive to the detected stability condition of the first tuning algorithm.
