Abstract:
A matching network of a communication device that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a controller that executes instructions facilitating an identifying a subset of usage scenarios based on a usage condition of the communication device and adjusting the matching network device based on a subset of different tuning scenarios corresponding to the subset of usage scenarios. A group of operational parameters is obtained via parametric measurements for each tuning scenario change between the tuning scenarios corresponding to each of the subset of usage scenarios. Multiple operational parameters are averaged corresponding to each of the tuning scenarios to identify an average operational parameter for each tuning scenario, and a tuning scenario is selected from among the subset of different tuning scenarios based on a determination as to which of the average operational parameters correlates with a desired performance goal. Additional embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 1):
A matching network for a communication device, the matching network comprising:\n an impedance matching circuit connectable with an antenna of the communication device, the impedance matching circuit comprising one or more variable components; a control processing system including a processor connectable with the impedance matching circuit; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the control processing system facilitates performance of operations, the operations comprising:\n identifying a subset of usage scenarios from a group of usage scenarios stored in a memory of the communication device, the subset of usage scenarios being identified based on a usage condition of the communication device; \n adjusting the matching network of the communication device based on a subset of different tuning scenarios corresponding to the subset of usage scenarios; \n obtaining a group of operational parameters via parametric measurements for each tuning scenario change between the tuning scenarios corresponding to each of the subset of usage scenarios, wherein the group of operational parameters includes multiple operational parameters obtained at each of the tuning scenarios at different times during an ordered sequence of sampling; \n averaging the multiple operational parameters corresponding to each of the tuning scenarios to identify an average operational parameter for each tuning scenario; and \n reviewing the subset of different tuning scenarios and selecting one tuning scenario of the subset of different tuning scenarios to obtain a selected tuning scenario based on a determination as to which of the average operational parameters correlates with a desired performance goal.
