Abstract

Antenna structures and methods of operating the same of a multi-feed antenna of an electronic device are described. A multi-feed antenna includes a first antenna element coupled to a first tuner circuit that is coupled a first radio frequency (RF) feed, and a second antenna element coupled to a second tuner circuit that is coupled to a second RF feed. The first tuner circuit is programmable to independently adjust a first impedance of the first antenna element and the second tuner circuit is programmable to independently adjust a second impedance of the second antenna element.
