[0034] In an embodiment, the circuit board is a PCB board.

[0035] In an embodiment, the isolation unit arranged on one end of the first antenna 21 close to the second antenna 22 comprises:

[0036] The first antenna 21 comprises a first feeding line 211, and the isolation unit is arranged on the first feeding line 211.

[0037] The first antenna 21 further comprises a first grounding portion 212 connected with the first feeding line 211.

[0038] As shown in Figure 2 , the antenna further comprises a first support 4, and the first isolation branch 31 is arranged on a side of the first support 4 away from the circuit board 1.

[0039] The second isolation branch 32 wraps all surfaces of the first support 4 except the side away from the circuit board 1.

[0040] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 , the first support 4 has a right-angled trapezoidal structure, the first isolation branch 31 is arranged on one of the right-angled sides of the first support 4, and the first isolation branch 31 only covers part of the right-angled side, and the second isolation branch 32 wraps the other three sides of the first support 4. The first isolation branch 31 and the second isolation branch 32 form a three-dimensional isolation structure, which can effectively improve the isolation between the two antennas.

[0041] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 , one end of the first isolation branch 31 and the second isolation branch 32 is connected, and the other end is not connected, so as to form a semi-closed isolation structure.

[0046] In an embodiment, the first isolation branch 31 has negative electrons, and the second isolation branch 32 has positive electrons, so as to isolate the mutual coupling between the first antenna and the second antenna.

[0047] Specifically, the first isolation branch 31 has negative electrons, and the second isolation branch 32 will couple to form induced positive electrons, so that the positive and negative electrons will form an electromagnetic field, which is located between the first antenna 21 and the second antenna 22, and will partially block the mutual coupling between the two antennas.

[0048] Figure 3 The measured results of the antenna without the isolation unit of the present disclosure are shown in the following figure,Figure 4 The measured result graph of the antenna of the present disclosure.
