Abstract
A system that incorporates teachings of the subject disclosure may include, for example, determining a first voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), selecting a VSWR circle from among a group of VSWR circles based on the first VSWR, identifying a group of sets of tuning settings for variable reactance elements of a matching network of the communication device where the identifying of the group of sets of tuning settings is based on each set of tuning settings of the group of sets of tuning settings being associated with the VSWR circle, and selecting a set of tuning settings from among the group of sets of tuning settings responsive to a second VSWR determined for the set of tuning settings satisfying a VSWR threshold. Other embodiments are disclosed.
