具体实施方式
为使本申请的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚，下面将结合本申请中的附图，对本申请中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述，显然，所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实 施例，本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例，都属于本申请保护的范围。
在本申请中，需要解释的是，“至少一个”是指一个或者多个，“多个”是指两个或两个以上。“和/或”，描述关联对象的关联关系，表示可以存在三种关系，例如，A和/或B，可以表示：单独存在A，同时存在A和B，单独存在B的情况，其中A，B可以是单数或者复数。字符“以是一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。“以下至少一项(个)”或其类似表达，是指的这些项中的任意组合，包括单项(个)或复数项(个)的任意组合。例如，a，b，或c中的至少一项(个)，可以表示：单独a，单独b，单独c，a和b的组合，a和c的组合，b和c的组合，或a、b以及c的组合，其中a，b，c可以是单个，也可以是多个。
图1为本申请提供的应用场景图。为了和网络设备实现通信，移动终端中通常配置有天线，移动终端通过该天线向网络设备发送上行数据或者接收网络设备发送的下行数据。图1中移动终端使用虚拟现实(Virtual Reality，简称VR)头戴式显示设备示意，网络设备使用路由器示意。移动终端还可以是智能手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、智能手表或者智能头盔等。网络设备还可以是基站、接入点(access point，AP)或者中继站等。移动终端和网络设备之间可以通过2G，3G，4G，5G或者WLAN等技术通信。图1不构成对本申请的限制。
现有技术中，移动终端中仅配置一根天线，该天线通过前期设计落实到整机后相关性能参数便不再做变动，例如天线在移动终端中所指向的方向及到对应发射机的空间时延。继续参见图1所示场景，上行数据和下行数据承载在电磁波上，移动终端在移动过程中，移动终端的姿态会发生变化，移动终端上的天线的方向也会随之变化，移动终端通信质量可能会变差，导致收发数据受到影响。
为解决上述技术问题，本申请提出设计一种天线模组，将该天线模组设计为贴片形式，在贴片上设计多个天线单元，移动终端在和网络设备通信时，若检测到正在使用的天线单元的通信质量不满足要求，则切换至另一天线单元进行通信，若另一天线单元的通信质量也不满足要求，则继续切换，直至找到通信质量满足要求的天线单元，这种方式减小了移动终端 的移动对移动终端和网络设备之间的通信的影响。另外，各个天线单元到射频馈入点的距离相同，即各天线单元到射频馈入点的时延相同，保证了切换天线单元的过程中时延的稳定性，提升了用户体验。而且，本申请中天线模组的设计方案集成度高，占用空间小。
下面以具体地实施例对本申请的具体实现方案进行详细说明。下面这几个具体的实施例可以相互结合，对于相同或相似的概念或过程可能在某些实施例中不再赘述。下面将结合附图，对本申请的实施例进行描述。
图2为本申请提供的天线模组的结构示意图。如图2所示，本申请提供的天线模组包括：贴片10、多个天线单元(P1～P8)以及控制芯片(未示出)，多个天线单元固定在贴片10上，贴片10上设置有射频馈入点F，射频馈入点和每个天线单元之间设置有传输通道，多个传输通道(P10～P80)的时延相同，控制芯片和射频馈入F点连接，控制芯片用于在当前接通的传输通道对应的天线单元的通信质量不能满足预设条件时，通过切换传输通道获取通信质量满足预设条件的目标天线单元，并使用所述目标天线单元进行通信。

下面介绍控制芯片切换天线单元的原理：
控制芯片周期性地或者定时地检测当前接通的传输通道对应的天线单 元的通信质量，并判断通信质量是否满足预设条件，若满足，则继续使用当前接通的传输通道对应的天线单元进行通信，若不满足预设条件，则通过单刀多置开关切换至第一传输通道，该第一传输通道可以为多个传输通道中除当前接通的传输通道以外任一传输通道，并实时检测第一传输通道对应的天线单元的通信质量，若第一传输通道对应的天线单元的通信质量满足预设条件，则将第一传输通道对应的天线单元作为目标天线单元。若第一传输通道对应的天线单元的通信质量不满足预设条件，控制芯片可通过单刀多置开关切换至第二传输通道，第二传输通道为除当前接通的传输通道以及第一传输通道以外任一传输通道。同样的，实时检测第二传输通道对应的天线单元的通信质量，并作出上文相同的判断，如此依次切换多个传输通道，直至找到通信质量满足要求的天线单元。

需要说明的是：贴片10设计为圆形的情况下，天线单元的数量可以多于图2示意的8个，或者少于图2示意的8个，本申请对此不作限定，但需说明的是：天线单元的数量越多，找到通信质量满足要求的天线单元的可能性越大。
下面结合图2所示设计对天线单元的切换过程进行说明：
假设当前单刀多置开关置于P10上，即P10是接通的，即移动终端当前使用的天线单元是P1，控制芯片周期性地或者定时地检测P1的通信质量，并判断P1的通信质量是否满足预设条件，比如信噪比是否大于预设 阈值，若P1的通信质量满足预设条件，则继续使用P1进行通信，若P1的通信质量不满足预设条件，则将单刀多置开关切换至P20，同样的，周期性地或者定时地检测P2的通信质量，并判断P2的通信质量是否满足预设条件，若满足，则使用P2进行通信，若P2的通信质量不满足预设条件，则将单刀多置开关切换至P30，如此按照P20→P30→P40→P50→P60→P70→P80的顺序依次进行切换，直到找到P1-P8中通信质量满足预设条件的目标天线单元，并使用目标天线单元进行通信，减小了移动终端的移动对移动终端和网络设备之间的通信的影响。另外，各个传输通道时延相同，即各天线单元到射频馈入点的时延相同，保证了切换天线单元的过程中时延的稳定性，提升了用户体验。
可选的，参见图3所示，贴片10还可以设计为正方形，天线模组可包括4个天线单元，分别使用P1、P2、P3、P4示意。贴片10的中心点为射频馈入点F，4个天线单元按照图3所示位置固定在贴片10上，天线模组还包括4个传输通道，依次为P10、P20、P30、P40。P10、P20、P30、P40时延相同。单刀多置开关设置于射频馈入点F和4个传输道通之间，用于将射频馈入点F和4个传输道通中任一传输通道连接。

下面结合图3所示设计对天线单元的切换过程进行说明：
假设当前单刀多置开关置于P20上，即P20是接通的，即移动终端当前使用的天线单元是P2，控制芯片周期性地或者定时地检测P2的通信质量，并判断P2的通信质量是否满足预设条件，若P2的通信质量满足预设条件，则继续使用P2进行通信，若P2的通信质量不满足预设条件，则将单刀多置开关切换至P30，同样的，周期性地或者定时地检测P3的通信质量，并判断P3的通信质量是否满足预设条件，若满足，则使用P3进行通信，若P3的通信质量不满足预设条件，则将单刀多置开关切换至P40，如此按照P30→P40→P10的顺序依次进行切换，直到找到P1-P4中通信质量满足预设条件的目标天线单元，并使用目标天线单元进行通信，减小了移 动终端的移动对移动终端和网络设备之间的通信的影响。而且，各个传输通道时延相同，即各天线单元到射频馈入点的时延相同，保证了切换天线单元的过程中时延的稳定性，提升了用户体验。
可选的，参见图4所示，贴片10还可以设计为等边六边形，天线模组可包括6个天线单元，分别使用P1、P2、P3、P4、P5、P6示意。贴片10的中心点为射频馈入点F，6个天线单元按照图4所示位置固定在贴片10上，天线模组还包括6个传输通道，依次为P10、P20、P30、P40、P50、P60。P10、P20、P30、P40、P50、P60时延相同。单刀多置开关设置于射频馈入点F和6个传输道通之间，用于将射频馈入点F和6个传输道通中任一传输通道连接。
需要说明的是：贴片10设计为等边六边形的情况下，天线单元的数量可以多于图4示意的6个，或者少于图4示意的6个，本申请对此不作限定，但需说明的是：天线单元的数量越多，找到通信质量满足要求的天线单元的可能性越大。
下面结合图4所示设计对天线单元的切换过程进行说明：
假设当前单刀多置开关置于P30上，即P30是接通的，即移动终端当前使用的天线单元是P3，控制芯片周期性地或者定时地检测P3的通信质量，并判断P3的通信质量是否满足预设条件，若P3的通信质量满足预设条件，则继续使用P3进行通信，若P3的通信质量不满足预设条件，则将单刀多置开关切换至P40，同样的，周期性地或者定时地检测P4的通信质量，并判断P4的通信质量是否满足预设条件，若满足，则使用P4进行通信，若P4的通信质量不满足预设条件，则将单刀多置开关切换至P50，如此按照P40→P50→P60→P10→P20的顺序依次进行切换，直到找到P1-P6中通信质量满足预设条件的目标天线单元，并使用目标天线单元进行通信，减小了移动终端的移动对移动终端和网络设备之间的通信的影响。而且，各个传输通道时延相同，即各天线单元到射频馈入点的时延相同，保证了切换天线单元的过程中时延的稳定性，提升了用户体验。
天线模组包括多刀多置开关时，多刀多置开关设置于射频馈入点F和多个传输道通之间，用于将射频馈入点F和多个传输道通中至少两个传输通道接通，具体接通数量根据MIMO系统灵活设备。
下面介绍MIMO场景下控制芯片切换天线单元的原理：
以多刀多置开关同时接通两个传输通道为例，控制芯片周期性地或者定时地检测当前接通的两个传输通道对应的天线单元的通信质量，并判断通信质量是否满足预设条件，若满足，则继续使用当前接通的两个传输通道对应的天线单元进行通信，若不满足预设条件，则通过多刀多置开关切换至第一传输通道和第二传输通道，第一传输通道和第二传输通道不同，第一传输通道和第二传输通道为多个所述传输通道中任一传输通道，并实时检测第一传输通道和第二传输通道对应的天线单元的通信质量，若第一传输通道和第二传输通道对应的天线单元的通信质量满足预设条件，则将第一传输通道和第二传输通道对应的天线单元作为目标天线单元。若第一传输通道和第二传输通道对应的天线单元的通信质量不满足预设条件，控制芯片可通过多刀多置开关切换至另两个传输通道。并作出上文相同的判断，如此依次切换多次，直至找到通信质量满足要求的天线单元。
可选的，在多刀多置的场景下，通信质量可以是吞吐率。
在MIMO通信方案中，多天线单元之间的隔离度(isolation，简称ISO)及相关性(envelope correlation coefficient，简称ECC)会影响整个系统的整体通信性能。例如wifi、LTE 2*2、LTE、5G 4*4的系统。天线单元间的相关性变差会导致整体吞吐率的下降。本方案可以在众多备选天线单元中选取ISO和ECC最好的天线用于通信，从而提升整个系统的通信性能。较原始固定天线方案，有更多的可能性用于提升性能。
下面结合图2所示设计对天线单元的切换过程进行举例说明：
以多刀多置开关同时接通两个传输通道为例，假设当前多刀多置开关置于P10和P20上，即P10和P20是接通的，即移动终端当前使用的天线单元包括P1和P2，控制芯片周期性地或者定时地检测P1和P2的通信质量，比如吞吐率，并判断P1和P2的通信质量是否满足预设条件，比如吞吐率是否大于预设阈值，若P1和P2的通信质量满足预设条件，则继续使用P1和P2进行通信，若P1和P2的通信质量不满足预设条件，则将多刀多置开关切换至8个传输通道中除P1和P2这一组合以外其他组合，比如P1和P3，或者P3和P4，同样的，周期性地或者定时地检测切换后的通信质量，并判断切换后的通信质量是否满足预设条件，若满足，则使用切换 后的天线单元进行通信，若不满足，继续切换其他组合。直到找到吞吐率最大的传输通道组合，并使用该组合对应的天线单元通信。本方案可以在众多备选天线单元中选取ISO和ECC最好的天线用于通信，从而提升整个系统的通信性能。较原始固定天线方案，有更多的可能性用于提升性能。另外，各个传输通道时延相同，即各天线单元到射频馈入点的时延相同，保证了切换天线单元的过程中时延的稳定性，提升了用户体验。
