Abstract

A built-in multi-antenna module includes a grounding unit, a plurality of first radiating units and a plurality of second radiating units. The first and the second radiating units are disposed on the grounding unit. Each first radiating unit has a first radiating body, a first feeding pin extended downwards from the first radiating body, and a first shorting pin extended downwards from the first radiating body and connected to the grounding unit. Each second radiating unit has a second radiating body, a second feeding pin extended downwards from the second radiating body, and a second shorting pin extended downwards from the second radiating body and connected to the grounding unit. The first radiating units and the second radiating units are alternately and symmetrically arranged on the grounding unit, and many included angles respectively formed between each first radiating unit and each second radiating unit are the same.
