BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention

2. Description of the Related Art
With the rising of the demand of consumers and the development of manufacturing technology, the mobile termination, such as mobile phone and laptop, trends to shorter and thinner. Meanwhile, the wireless transmission function including voice and data transmission has become indispensable for all the mobile terminations. And the mobile phone should be provided with the bilateral function due to some demands, for instance, making a call while performing data transfer.
However, with the reduction in size of mobile termination, and in order to satisfy the wireless transmissions with the different protocols, a plurality of antenna devices shall be installed in a limited space, which makes it more difficult to design the antennas.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The present invention will be further illustrated in combination with the following figures and embodiments, but it should not be deemed as limitation of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 1, a device for improving the stray isolation between the antennas in the bilateral antenna comprises a plurality of communication modules which include Antenna 1 and Power Amplification Module 4; at least one of the communication modules further comprises Tuning Module 3; Power Amplification Module 4 is connected to Antenna 1 directly or is connected to Antenna 1 through Tuning Module 3. The stray isolation among the communication modules is improved by adjusting Tuning Module 3. An analogy continuously tunable tuning module or a digital controlled stepping tunable tuning module is adopted in Tuning Module 3. A tunable capacitor array consisting of a plurality of tunable capacitor units is adopted in Tuning Module 3, and in another embodiment, an adjustable inductance array consisting of a plurality of tunable inductor units is adopted in Tuning Module 3. The maximum capacitance of the tunable capacitor array is 32 pF, the minimum capacitance is 0.5 pF, and the capacitance stepping is 0.5 pF. The antenna of one of the communication modules and the antenna of the other communication modules work in different frequencies.
Furthermore, each of the communication modules is provided with Tuning Module 3 separately.
Referring to FIG. 2, a method for improving the stray isolation between the antennas in the bilateral antenna will be illustrated below: any two of the communication modules, such as First Communication Module 11 and Second Communication Module 12, are selected. A tuning module is included in First Communication Module 11, and the antennas of at least two communication frequency bands are adopted in the Communication Module 11. At least two of the communication frequency bands include a first communication frequency band and a second communication frequency band. When First Communication Module 11 works in the first communication frequency band, a certain stray power in the second communication frequency band is included in the signal output by First Communication Module 11. Meanwhile, a certain stray power in the first communication frequency band is included in the signal output by the second communication frequency band. The standing wave of First Communication Module 11 in the second communication frequency band is deteriorated by adjusting the tuning module connected to First Communication Module 11. The power of the second communication frequency band coupled to Second Communication Module 12 is decreased. The stray isolation between First Communication Module 11 and Second Communication Module 12 is increased.
This invention deteriorates the standing wave of First Communication Module 11 in the second communication frequency band, by the way of adjusting the tuning module connected to First Communication Module 11, and there is little influence on the standing wave of First Communication Module 11 in the first communication frequency band. Thereby due to the standing wave of the second communication frequency band, the stray power of the first communication frequency band is deteriorated, and then the power of the second communication frequency band fed by First Communication Module 11 is decreased. The power of the second communication frequency band coupled to Second Communication Module 12 is decreased, i.e., the stray isolation between First Communication Module 11 and Second Communication Module 12 is increased.
In one preferred embodiment of the invention, First Communication Module 11 works in GSM system. The first communication frequency band is EGSM900, and the second communication frequency band is DCS1800. Second Communication Module 12 works in GSM system and TD-SCDMA system, an antenna of multi-communication frequency band is adopted in Second Communication Module 12. The communication frequency bands of Second Communication Module 12 comprises USGSM850, EGSM900, DCS1800, PCS1900, TD-SCDMA Band A, TD-SCDMA Band F. The antennas of First Communication Module 11 and Second Communication Module 12 are connected to the tunable capacitor array separately. The tunable capacitor array consists of a plurality of tunable capacitors. The maximum capacitance of the tunable capacitor array is 32 pF, the minimum capacitance of the tunable capacitor array is 0.5 pF, and the capacitance stepping is 0.5 pF. When First Communication Module 11 works in EGSM900, and when Second Communication Module 12 works in DCS1800, the signal output by EGSM900 contains lots of stray power in the frequency band of DCS 1800, meanwhile the signal output by the signal output by DCS1800 contains lots of stray power in the frequency band of EGSM900. The tunable capacitor array in First Communication Module 11 is adjusted separately, the standing wave of First Communication Module 11 in the frequency band of DCS1800 is deteriorated, and it takes little influence on the standing wave of First Communication Module 11 in EGSM900 frequency band. Consequently, due to the standing wave of DSC1800 frequency band, the stray power of EGSM900 frequency band is deteriorated, and then the power of DSC1800 frequency band fed by First Communication Module 11 is decreased. The power of DSC1800 frequency band coupled to Second Communication Module 12 is decreased, i.e., the stray isolation from First Communication Module 11 to Second Communication Module 12 is increased.
An antenna of single-communication frequency band may further be adopted in First Communication Module 11 and Second Communication Module 12. This invention is applied that First Communication Module 11 and Second Communication Module 12 work in different communication system, and the present invention is also applied that First Communication Module 11 and Second Communication Module 12 work in the same communication system. According to a preferred embodiment, First Communication Module 11 and Second Communication Module 12 may work in different communication frequency bands.
Preferably, First Communication Module 11 and Second Communication Module 12 are applied to different antenna systems, such as, 2 G/3 G/4 G, BT, WIFI or GPS.
The descriptions of the present invention have been presented are preferred embodiments, but are not intended to be exhaustive or limited to the embodiments disclosed. It is apparent for the skilled in the art that any equivalent replacement and obvious changes according to the specification and drawings of this invention shall be included.
