In a specific implementation, when the fourth selection switch 540 selects to turn on the uhf transmission circuit 410, the fifth selection switch 550 is configured to select to turn on a signal path between the uhf transmission circuit 410 and any one of the two uhf antenna ports and the two SRS ports 810, so as to support a round-robin function of the uhf signals between the antennas. The SRS switching4 antenna transmitting function of the mobile phone is a necessary option of CMCC in 'Chinese Mobile 5G Scale test technology white paper _ terminal', and is selectable in the third generation partnership project 3GPP, and the SRS switching4 antenna transmitting function is mainly used for a base station to determine the quality and parameters of 4 channels by measuring uplink signals of 4 antennas of the mobile phone, and then beam forming of a downlink maximized multi-input multi-output Massive MIMO antenna array is carried out on the 4 channels according to channel reciprocity, so that the downlink 4x4MIMO obtains the best data transmission performance.
