Capability requirements and tolerances

Consumer-specific numerical targets, quantities and acceptance limits remain open or incompletely reviewed. No smartphone-grade suitability is claimed. Distinct capability tiers require their own making route and qualification.

Making outline

Select one switchable impedance-tuning architecture.
Populate switches/passives and establish physical command interface.
Characterize every state for loss, linearity, power and isolation.

What remains unresolved

Aperture tuning is a separate alternative; tuning state count/control protocol unresolved.
Full inventory, quantities, losses, capability compatibility and acceptance remain unreviewed.
