     DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS 
     To make the objective, technical solutions, and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the technical solutions in the present disclosure are clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments and corresponding accompanying drawings of the present disclosure. It is appreciated that, the described embodiments are some rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts should fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure. 
     The terms used in the embodiments of the present disclosure are only used to explain the specific embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. 
     To improve transmitting and receiving quality of a Bluetooth signal, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for receiving Bluetooth signal. In the method, a plurality of receive antennas are used to receive signals to obtain a plurality of Bluetooth signals. Then the plurality of obtained Bluetooth signals are converted into a single effective Bluetooth signal. 
     Further, in an actual application scenario, the plurality of Bluetooth signals can be converted into the single effective Bluetooth signal by using a variety of different manners. To make the converted single Bluetooth signal well meet requirements of the application scenario, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, a received-signal conversion strategy for converting the plurality of Bluetooth signals is created based on a signal quality requirement of the received Bluetooth signal (for example, an signal to noise ratio (SNR) requirement to be met by the received Bluetooth signal). 
       FIG. 1  is a flowchart of executing a method for receiving Bluetooth signal according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. A Bluetooth receiving device (for example, a mobile phone) executes the following method procedure shown in  FIG. 1 . 
     S 110 : Obtain a plurality of Bluetooth signals received by a plurality of receive antennas. 
     S 120 : Convert the plurality of Bluetooth signals into a single received Bluetooth signal according to a preset received-signal conversion strategy, the received-signal conversion strategy corresponds to a signal quality requirement of the received Bluetooth signal. 
     In S 110 , the plurality of receive antennas may be two or more antennas, and a specific quantity of antennas is determined by an actual requirement of an application scenario, a carrying capacity of the device, and other factors. 
     Two antennas are used as an example.  FIG. 2  is a schematic diagram showing an application scenario of receiving a Bluetooth signal according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG. 2 , a device X 2  is a device for transmitting Bluetooth signal, and a device Y 2  is a device for receiving Bluetooth signal. The device Y 2  has two receive antennas T 21  and T 22 . After the device X 2  transmits a Bluetooth signal, the antenna T 21  receives a Bluetooth signal L 21  on a channel h 21 , the antenna T 22  receives a Bluetooth signal L 22  on a channel h 22 , and the device Y 2  converts the Bluetooth signal L 21  and the Bluetooth signal L 22  into a single signal L 2 . 
     Further, in S 120 , the plurality of Bluetooth signals can be converted into the single received Bluetooth signal in any feasible manner, to meet the signal quality requirement of the received Bluetooth signal. 
     For example, in an implementation of S 120 , a maximal ratio combining (MRC) is adopted to meet the signal quality requirement of the received Bluetooth signal by adjusting an allocated combining weight of each received Bluetooth signal in a combining process. 
     In an embodiment, in an actual application scenario, a common signal quality requirement of the received Bluetooth signal is maximally optimizing an SNR of the received Bluetooth signal. Therefore, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, in S 120 , a receive antenna i in the plurality of receive antennas corresponds to a channel h i , and a combining weight u i  corresponding to the receive antenna i is calculated based on h i  to optimize the SNR of the received Bluetooth signal, where i=1, 2, . . . , M, and M represents a quantity of receive antennas. 
     In an embodiment, assuming that a to-be-transmitted signal is x(t), a received Bluetooth signal y(t) obtained after the receiving device performs MRC to combine a plurality of Bluetooth signals is expressed as follows: 
         y ( t )=Σ i=1   M   u   i   h   i   x ( t )  (1)
 
     It is assumed that noise power spectral densities (PSDs) of all the receive antennas are the same and denoted as N 0 , and that a PSD of the to-be-transmitted signal is E x . An SNR total  of the received Bluetooth signal y(t) obtained after the receiving end performs MRC to combine the plurality of Bluetooth signals is expressed as follows:

     In the above formula, P total  represents total power of the received signal, and N total  represents total noise power. 
     According to the Cauchy Inequality, when u i =h i *, the equality is satisfied. In this case, a value of SNR total  is maximum to realize an optimal a diversity gain of the receiving end. 
     For another example, in an implementation of S 120 , a selective combining solution may alternatively be adopted to select Bluetooth signals meeting a preset requirement (for example, meeting a single SNR threshold) from the plurality of Bluetooth signals, and perform MRC on the selected Bluetooth signals. For example, it is assumed that the Bluetooth receiving device has four antennas. Two Bluetooth signals with optimal channel quality are selected from four Bluetooth signals received by the four antennas, and the two Bluetooth signals are combined into a single received Bluetooth signal. 
     Further, in S 120 , the plurality of Bluetooth signals may alternatively be converted into the single received Bluetooth signal in a manner other than by combining the plurality Bluetooth signals, to meet the signal quality requirement of the received Bluetooth signal. 
     For example, in an implementation of S 120 , an antenna selection solution is adopted. In an antenna selection algorithm, based on the signal quality requirement, one or more of the plurality of Bluetooth signals are selected as the received Bluetooth signal (baseband processing signal) for subsequent synchronous demodulation and other operations. In the antenna selection solution, channel estimation is not required. This can reduce an amount of calculation and complexity, thereby reducing a cost. 
     In an embodiment, in an application scenario, the signal quality requirement of the received Bluetooth signal is selecting a Bluetooth receiving channel with optimal channel quality. In an implementation of S 120 , based on measured channel values of the plurality of Bluetooth signals, a Bluetooth signal with an optimal measured channel value is selected from the plurality of Bluetooth signals as the received Bluetooth signal. The measured channel values each include but are not limited to a received signal strength indication (RSSI) or a reference signal receiving power (RSRP). 
     According to the method in this embodiment of the present disclosure, a diversity gain is obtained by using the plurality of antennas to receive the Bluetooth signals, so as to improve receiving quality of the Bluetooth signals, improve performance of a Bluetooth communication system, and increase transmission distances of the Bluetooth signals. 
     Further, in an actual application scenario, during adaptive frequency hopping (AFH), an RSSI/PER of a combined signal can be directly used as a basis for channel quality evaluation, to improve reliability of channel quality determining. In the Bluetooth system, in AFH, master and slave devices perform frequency hopping to select a channel with “good” quality for communication. These “good” channels do not change greatly in a short time, and can be considered that channel environments are approximately the same. Therefore, an estimation result (for example, channel state information (CSI)) of the receiving channel can be used at a transmitting end to beamform a to-be transmitted signal to obtain a gain of a transmit diversity. 
     In an embodiment, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for transmitting Bluetooth signal. A to-be-transmitted Bluetooth signal is transmitted by using a plurality of transmit antennas according to a preset to-be-transmitted-signal allocation strategy. 
     The to-be-transmitted-signal allocation strategy corresponds to a signal quality requirement of a received Bluetooth signal. 
     The received Bluetooth signal is a received signal calculated by beamforming the to-be-transmitted Bluetooth signal transmitted by the plurality of transmit antennas. 
     In an embodiment,  FIG. 3  is a flowchart of executing a method for transmitting Bluetooth signal according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. A Bluetooth transmitting device (for example, a mobile phone) executes the following method procedure shown in  FIG. 3 . 
     S 310 : Configure a plurality of transmit antennas according to a preset to-be-transmitted-signal allocation strategy. 
     S 320 : Transmit a to-be-transmitted Bluetooth signal by using the plurality of transmit antennas. 
     In S 310  and S 320 : 
     The to-be-transmitted-signal allocation strategy corresponds to a signal quality requirement of a received Bluetooth signal. 
     The received Bluetooth signal is a received signal calculated by beamforming the to-be-transmitted Bluetooth signal transmitted by the plurality of transmit antennas. 
     In S 320 , the plurality of transmit antennas may be two or more antennas, and a specific quantity of antennas is determined by an actual requirement of an application scenario, a carrying capacity of the device, and other factors. 
     Two antennas are used as an example.  FIG. 4  is a schematic diagram showing an application scenario of transmitting a Bluetooth signal according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG. 4 , a device X 4  is a device for transmitting Bluetooth signal, and a device Y 4  is a device for receiving Bluetooth signal. The device X 4  has two transmit antennas T 41  and T 42 . The antennas T 41  and T 42  transmit a to-be-transmitted Bluetooth signal based on channels h 41  and h 42  respectively. 
     Further, in an actual application scenario, the plurality of transmit antennas can be configured in any feasible to-be-transmitted-signal configuration manner, to meet a signal quality requirement of the to-be-transmitted Bluetooth signal. 
     In an embodiment of the present disclosure, based on channel corresponding to the plurality of transmit antennas, the to-be-transmitted Bluetooth signal is divided into a plurality of Bluetooth signals corresponding to the plurality of transmit antennas respectively. Transmit power of each transmit antenna is determined based on a signal transmit power setting of the transmitting device and a power allocation weight corresponding to each transmit antenna. 
     In an embodiment, in an application scenario, the signal quality requirement of the received Bluetooth signal is optimizing an SNR of the received Bluetooth signal; and in S 310 , a transmit antenna i in the plurality of transmit antennas is configured to transmit the signal based on a power allocation weight v i  (0≤|v i |≤1), where i=1, 2, . . . , N, and N represents a quantity of transmit antennas; and V i  represents a parameter calculated based on a channel h i  corresponding to the transmit antenna i. 
     In an embodiment, assuming that a to-be-transmitted signal is x(t), a received signal is expressed as follows: 
         y ( t )=Σ i=1   N   h   i   v   i   x ( t )  (3)
 
     It is assumed that total average power keeps unchanged before and after beamforming, namely: 
       Σ i=1   N   ∥v   i ∥ 2 =1  (4)
 
     If a noise PSD of a receiving end is N 0 , and a PSD of the to-be-transmitted signal is E x , an SNR total  of the received signal is expressed as follows:

     In the above formula, Q=E{xx H } represents a covariance matrix of a signal at the receiving end; M represents a quantity of antennas (1 herein); σ 2  represents a noise variance, P represents power of the to-be-transmitted signal; H represents a channel matrix; H=UDV H  can be obtained by performing singular value decomposition (SVD) on H. When Q=VΛ Q V H , the channel capacity can reach a maximum, and the corresponding matrix Λ Q  is a solution of channel capacity maximization, and physically indicates power allocation of the transmit antenna. 
     Further, in an actual application scenario, the to-be-transmitted-signal allocation strategy may alternatively be realized by using another solution. For example, a gain of a multi-antenna transmit diversity can be realized by using a precoding method (similar to a multi-antenna precoding matrix in long term evolution (LTE)) or by using a method in which an analog end controls an antenna emission angle based on a channel. 
     According to the method in embodiments of the present disclosure, a diversity gain is obtained by using the plurality of antennas to transmit the Bluetooth signal, so as to improve transmitting quality of the Bluetooth signal, improve performance of a Bluetooth communication system, and increase a transmission distance of the Bluetooth signal. The diversity methods used in the present disclosure do not need to modify an existing protocol standard, and can match an existing Bluetooth device, thereby greatly reducing an implementation difficulty (for example, if space time block coding (STBC) or another method is adopted, some protocol standards need to be modified, and it is difficult to match the existing Bluetooth device). 
     It can be understood that some or all of the steps or operations in the above embodiments are only examples, and other operations or variants of various operations can further be performed in the embodiments of the present disclosure. In addition, the steps may be performed in different orders presented in the above embodiments, and not all the operations in the above embodiments need to be performed. 
     In the 1990s, a technological improvement can be clearly defined as hardware improvement (for example, an improvement of a circuit structure such as a diode, a transistor, or a switch) or software improvement (for example, an improvement of a method procedure). However, with the development of technologies, improvements of many method procedures can be regarded as direct improvements of hardware circuit structures. Almost all designers obtain a corresponding hardware circuit structure by programming an improved method procedure into a hardware circuit. Therefore, it is not meant that an improvement of a method procedure cannot be realized by using a hardware entity module. For example, a programmable logic device (PLD) (such as a field programmable gate array (FPGA)) is such an integrated circuit, and its logic function is determined by programming the device by an access party. A designer can “integrate” a digital apparatus onto a PLD through programming, without requiring a chip manufacturer to design and manufacture a special integrated circuit chip. Nowadays, this kind of programming replaces manual manufacturing of an integrated circuit chip and is mostly realized by using a “logic compiler”. The logic compiler is similar to a software compiler used to develop and compile a program, and original code before compilation needs to be compiled in a specific programming language that is referred to as a hardware description language (HDL) herein. There are many kinds of HDLs, such as an advanced Boolean expression language (ABEL), an alternate hardware description language (AHDL), Confluence, a Cornell university programming language (CUPL), HDCal, a Java hardware description language (JHDL), Lava, Lola, MyHDL, PALASM, and a Ruby hardware description language (RHDL). At present, a very-high-speed integrated circuit hardware description language (VHDL) and Verilog are most commonly used. It should be understood by a person skilled in the art that a hardware circuit of a logic method procedure can be easily obtained by using the above hardware description languages to perform logic programming on the method procedure and programming the method procedure into an integrated circuit. 
     Therefore, the present disclosure further provides an apparatus for receiving Bluetooth signal. The apparatus is installed in a Bluetooth communication device (for example, a mobile phone). The apparatus includes: a signal obtaining module configured to obtain a plurality of Bluetooth signals received by a plurality of receive antennas; and a signal conversion module configured to convert the plurality of Bluetooth signals into a single received Bluetooth signal according to a preset received-signal conversion strategy. The received-signal conversion strategy corresponds to a signal quality requirement of the received Bluetooth signal. 
     According to the method for transmitting Bluetooth signal in the present disclosure, the present disclosure further provides an apparatus for receiving Bluetooth signal. The apparatus is installed in a Bluetooth communication device (for example, a mobile phone). The apparatus includes: a transmission configuration module configured to configure a plurality of transmit antennas according to a preset to-be-transmitted-signal allocation strategy, such that the plurality of transmit antennas transmit a to-be-transmitted Bluetooth signal. The to-be-transmitted-signal allocation strategy corresponds to a signal quality requirement of a received Bluetooth signal. The received Bluetooth signal is a received signal calculated by beamforming the Bluetooth signal transmitted by the plurality of transmit antennas. 
     Each of the plurality of transmit antennas transmits one of a plurality of Bluetooth signals.

     Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present disclosure may be provided as a method, an apparatus, or a computer program product. Therefore, the present disclosure may use a form of hardware only embodiments, software only embodiments, or embodiments with a combination of software and hardware. Moreover, the present disclosure may be in a form of a computer program product that is implemented on one or more computer-usable storage media that include computer-usable program code. 
     In the embodiments provided in the present disclosure, if implemented in a form of a software functional unit and sold or used as a stand-alone product, any function may be stored in a computer-readable storage medium. Based on this understanding, the technical solutions of the present disclosure essentially, or a part contributing to the related art, or a part of the technical solutions may be embodied in a form of a software product. The computer software product is stored in a storage medium, and includes several instructions to enable a computer device (which may be a personal computer, a server, a network device, or the like) to perform all or some steps of the methods described in the embodiments of the present disclosure. 
     An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a computer-readable storage medium. The computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program. When the computer program runs on a computer, the computer executes the methods provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure. 
     An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a computer program product. The computer program product includes a computer program. When the computer program runs on a computer, the computer executes of the methods provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure. 
     The embodiments of the present disclosure are described with reference to the flowcharts and/or block diagrams of the method, the device (apparatus), and the computer program product according to the embodiments of the present disclosure. It should be understood that computer program instructions may be used to implement each process and/or each block in the flowcharts and/or the block diagrams and a combination of a process and/or a block in the flowcharts and/or the block diagrams. These computer program instructions may be provided for a general-purpose computer, a dedicated computer, an embedded processor, or a processor of another programmable data processing device to generate a machine, such that the instructions executed by a computer or a processor of another programmable data processing device generate an apparatus for implementing a specific function in one or more processes in the flowcharts and/or in one or more blocks in the block diagrams. 
     These computer program instructions may be stored in a computer readable memory that can instruct the computer or any other programmable data processing device to work in a specific manner, such that the instructions stored in the computer readable memory generate an artifact that includes an instruction apparatus. The instruction apparatus implements a specific function in one or more processes in the flowcharts and/or in one or more blocks in the block diagrams. 
     These computer program instructions may be loaded onto a computer or another programmable data processing device, such that a series of operations and steps are performed on the computer or another programmable device, thereby generating computer-implemented processing. Therefore, the instructions executed on the computer or another programmable device provide steps for implementing a specific function in one or more processes in the flowcharts and/or in one or more blocks in the block diagrams. 
     It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the term “at least one” refers to one or more, and the term “a plurality of” refers to two or more. The term “and/or” describes associations between associated objects, and it indicates three types of relationships. For example, “A and/or B” may indicate that A exists alone, A and B coexist, or B exists alone. “A” and “B” each may be singular or plural. The character “/” generally indicates that the associated objects are in an “or” relationship. The term “at least one of the followings” or a similar expression refers to any combination of these items, including any combination of single items or plural items. For example, at least one of a, b and c may represent: a, b, c, a and b, a and c, or b and c, where a, b and c may be singular or plural. 
     In addition, terms “include”, “comprise”, or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, product, or device including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements that are not explicitly listed, or also includes inherent elements of the process, method, product, or device. Without more restrictions, an element defined by the phrase “including a . . . ” does not exclude the presence of another same element in a process, method, product, or device that includes the element. 
     The present disclosure may be described in general contexts of computer executable instructions executed by a computer, such as a program module. Generally, the program module includes a routine, a program, an object, a component, a data structure, and the like that perform specific tasks or implement specific abstract data types. The present disclosure may alternatively be practiced in a distributed computing environment in which a task is performed by a remote processing device connected through a communication network. In the distributed computing environment, the program module may be located in local and remote computer storage media including a storage device. 
     The embodiments in the present disclosure are described in a progressive manner. For same or similar parts between the embodiments, reference may be made to each other. Each embodiment focuses on a difference from other embodiments. For an apparatus embodiment, since it is basically similar to the method embodiment, the description is relatively simple, and reference can be made to the description of the method embodiment. 
     Those of ordinary skill in the art may be aware that units and algorithm steps described in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented by electronic hardware or a combination of computer software and electronic hardware. Whether these functions are implemented by using hardware or software depends on specific applications and design constraints of the technical solutions. A person skilled in the art may use different methods to implement the described functions for each specific application, but such implementation should not be considered to be beyond the scope of the present disclosure. 
     A person skilled in the art can clearly understand that, for convenience and brevity of description, reference may be made to corresponding processes in the foregoing method embodiment for specific working processes of the foregoing apparatuses and units. Details are not described herein again. 
     The above merely describes specific implementations of the present disclosure. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive modifications or replacements within the technical scope of the present disclosure, and these modifications or replacements shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the protection scope of the present disclosure should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
