"In a mobile there is no matching network..."
That's true with a typical mobile antenna. But what's stopping you from adding such a device to a mobile antenna? It's done quite often. It's never very 'simple' or easy considering the design of most mobile antennas, but that certainly doesn't make it impossible by any means.
