Title:
ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SWITCHING ANTENNA THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/019274
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This electronic device may comprise, as a foldable housing, a hinge structure, a first antenna disposed on a part of a first lateral member, a second antenna disposed on a part of the first lateral member so as to transmit/receive signals in a second frequency band different from a first frequency band, a third antenna disposed on a part of a second lateral member so as to transmit/receive signals in the first frequency band, a fourth antenna disposed on a part of the second lateral member so as to transmit/receive signals in the second frequency band, a switch for electrically connecting at least one of the first, second, third, and fourth antennas to a wireless communication circuit, a sensor for sensing an external object contacting or approaching the electronic device, and a processor. The processor may select an antenna to output signals on the basis of the frequency band of signals transmitted by the wireless communication circuit, the status of the foldable housing, and/or a contact or approach of an external object sensed by the sensor, and may control the switch such that the wireless communication circuit and the selected antenna are electrically connected.
