A communication device is disclosed. The communication device includes a receiver, a transmitter, a memory, a sensor to measure antenna detuning, a plurality of receiver configurations stored in the memory. Each of the plurality of receiver configurations include parameter-value pairs and a control unit, coupled to the sensor and the receiver, to select a receiver configuration from the plurality of receiver configurations based on an output of the sensor. The control unit is configured to alter a processing behavior of the receiver by altering values of receiver control parameters according to the parameter-value pairs.

A method of adapting an antenna to a transceiver system having a receiver subsystem and a transmitter subsystem comprises using an automatic tuning system to tune the antenna with respect to the receiver subsystem. The tuning results in an optimal receive signal at the receiver subsystem in response to RF energy radiated to the antenna. The tuning system may include a tuning detection element for radiating RF energy to the antenna, and a tuning element for tuning the antenna. After tuning the antenna, the method further comprises tuning a tunable matching network, coupled between an output of an RF power device of the transmitter subsystem and an input of the antenna, to facilitate an optimal power transfer amount from the RF power device to the antenna while the RF power device operates according to certain desired parameters. The desired parameters may include output power and efficiency.

Apparatuses and methods for simultaneously operating as a wireless radio and monitoring the local frequency spectrum. For example, described herein are wireless radio devices that use a secondary receiver to monitor frequencies within the operating band and prevent or avoid interferers, including in particular half-IF interferers. The systems, devices, and methods described herein may adjust the intermediate frequency in a superheterodyne receiver to select an intermediate frequency that minimizes interference. In particular, described herein are apparatuses and methods that use a second receiver which is independent of the first receiver and may be connected to the same receiving antenna to monitor the geographically local frequency spectrum and may detect spurious interferers, allowing the primary receiver to adjust the intermediate frequency and avoid spurious interferes.
