Abstract
A mobile communication device that adapts its usage of antennas based on a rule set and an operation context. The device comprises a plurality of antennas, a radio modem, a processor, a non-transitory memory, and a client application stored in the non-transitory memory. When executed by the processor, the application receives a biometric input for authenticating a session of a user on the device, wherein the biometric input is associated with a biometric profile, sends a request for a rule set to a server computer, and receives the rule set. The application further stores the rule set, evaluates the rule set based on the operation context to determine an antenna operation setting, and commands the radio modem to configure itself to the antenna operation setting, whereby the radio modem is restricted from using all of the plurality of antennas at the same time in at least some operation contexts.
