1. A mobile communication device comprising:
- a plurality of antennas operable in at least one frequency band, the antennas disposed substantially coplanar having varying degrees of polarity;
a logic structure for determining which of the antennas are optimal for operation of the mobile communication device;
a logic structure for selecting one or more of the antennas for optimal operation of the mobile communication device; and
a logic structure for applying a signal transformation technique for manipulation of signals received from a network node through the selected one or more antennas to generate a resultant signal, the network node operable within a wireless communication network.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a mobile communication device comprises a plurality of antennas, the antennas operable in at least one frequency band, is operable to automatically optimize the best antenna or antenna combination in reaction to the mobile communication device'"'"'s immediate environment. The antennas are disposed substantially coplanar and have varying degrees of polarity. The mobile communication device further comprises logic structure for determining which of the antennas are optimal for operation of the mobile communication device and logic structure for selecting the optimal antenna for operation of the mobile communication device.
