1. A method, comprising:

  • determining, by a circuit, a magnitude difference between a first signal supplied to an antenna and a second signal radiated by the antenna;

    determining, by the circuit, a phase difference between the first signal supplied to the antenna and the second signal radiated by the antenna;

    measuring, by the circuit, a change in reactance of the antenna;

    detecting, by the circuit, an offset in an operating frequency of the antenna based on one of the magnitude difference, the phase difference, the change in reactance, or any combination thereof; and

    adjusting, by the circuit, a resonant frequency of the antenna to mitigate the offset in the operating frequency of the antenna.
