Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/018137
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
According to an embodiment disclosed herein, an electronic apparatus may comprise a foldable housing, a communication circuit, a first sensor IC, a second sensor IC, a first switching circuit, a processor, and memory. The foldable housing may include a first housing that is hinge-connected to a second housing, a first side member that is disposed on a side surface of the first housing and includes a plurality of first conductive parts, and a second side member that is disposed on a side surface of the second housing and includes a plurality of second conductive parts. The communication circuit is electrically connected to a first conductive part among the plurality of first conductive parts, and may be configured to transmit and/or receive signals in a selected or designated frequency band. The first sensor IC is electrically connected to at least one of the plurality of first conductive parts and can measure capacitance. The second sensor IC is electrically connected to at least one of the plurality of second conductive parts and can measure capacitance. The first switching circuit may be electrically connected to the first conductive part and a second conductive part among the plurality of first conductive parts. The memory can store instructions that cause the processor to perform a plurality of operations when executed. The plurality of operations may include an operation for controlling the first switching circuit. Here, when the foldable housing is in a folded state, the first conductive part and the second conductive part may be electrically connected on the basis of at least one of the capacitance measured by the first sensor IC or the capacitance measured by the second sensor IC. Various other embodiments may be possible.
