Abstract

A circuit arrangement including one or more processors configured to: detect a presence of one or more human object proximities based on sensor data; identify one or more coverage sectors of one or more antenna arrays, operably coupled to the one or more processors, in response to the detected presence of the one or more human object proximities; determine whether radio waves within the one or more identified coverage sectors satisfy a transmit power criteria; select one or more candidate coverage sectors of the one or more antenna arrays based the one or more identified coverage sectors; and determine at least one radio link quality for the radio waves of the one or more candidate coverage sectors.
