1. An antenna system comprising:
an antenna, the antenna having a width extending in an X direction;
a radiating element, the radiating element being capacitively coupled with the antenna, the radiating element extending in the X direction beyond the width of the antenna, the radiating element comprising a Y dimension portion and a Z dimension portion, the Z dimension portion extending perpendicular to the Y dimension portion, the radiating element comprising a projection extending from the Y dimension portion, the projection being electrically coupled with the antenna; and,
a tuner module electrically coupled to the antenna and the radiating element, the tuner module tuning the antenna and the radiating element, the tuner module comprising a proxy sensor, the proxy sensor detecting when a human body approaches the antenna, the tuner module reducing transmit power of the antenna system when the human body approaches the antenna.
