MOBILE TERMINAL AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME IN CONSIDERATION OF COMMUNICATION ENVIRONMENT
First Claim
1. A mobile terminal controllable according to communication environment, the mobile terminal comprising:
- a grip sensor unit for generating sensing signals corresponding to user grip;
a control unit for identifying a grip pattern on the basis of sensing signals from the grip sensor unit, for extracting communication control information associated with the identified grip pattern, and for performing at least one of power control and antenna tuning control; and
a communication means to which power control and antenna tuning are applied under control of the control unit.
