Abstract

See full text

An electronic device provides a capability of distinguishing between human tissue and a non-human object in proximity of a transmission source. In this manner, transmission power adjustments to the transmission source can be made selectively, depending on whether human tissue or a non-human object is detected in the proximity of the RF transmitter. Distinguishing between human tissue and other non-human-tissue objects in proximity of the transmission source provides for selective control of SAR adjustments. Accordingly, an electronic device can avoid certain communication performance reductions introduced by decreases in transmission power effected to comply with SAR standards by reducing transmission power when human tissue is detected in the proximity but not reducing transmission power when a non-human object (but no human tissue) is detected in the proximity.
