Abstract:
1. A foldable mobile terminal comprising: a pair of housings which are coupled through a hinge to make the terminal foldable; at least two antennas arranged on the housings, respectively, in diagonal relationship to fail to overlap with each other in a state that the terminal is folded in; a switch connected to the antennas; at least two radio units mounted corresponding with the antennas on one of the housing and connected selectively to the antennas through the switch; and a selector to select, only on the basis of whether the terminal is folded-out or folded-in, a synthesis diversity transceiving system for synthesizing detection signals of the radio units when the terminal is folded-out and select a selective diversity transceiving system for selecting one of the antennas that provides a receiving level higher than other of the antennas, when the terminal is folded in.
