Abstract

A multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna system is implemented for communications in a wireless device. Information regarding the environment surrounding the wireless device may be used to determine which of the MIMO antennas are selected such that communications performance is improved. Metrics related to signal transmission and reception by the wireless device may be monitored and used to determine which MIMO antennas are selected. The metrics may be measured by any of the MIMO antennas at any time, including antennas currently engaged or not engaged in active communications. The metrics may be used in lieu of sensors to supplement or replace wireless device functionality otherwise provided by the sensors.
