Antenna and electronic device including same

Abstract

An electronic device is provided, the device comprising a foldable housing comprising a hinge structure, a first housing structure connected thereto and including a first surface facing in a first direction, a second surface facing in a second direction opposite the first direction, and a first side member encompassing a space between the first and second surfaces and including at least one first conductive part, and a second housing structure connected to the hinge structure, including a third surface facing in a third direction, a fourth surface facing in a fourth direction opposite the third direction, and a second side member encompassing a space between the third and fourth surfaces and including at least one second conductive part, and folded with the first housing structure around the hinge structure. A flexible display extends from the first surface to the third surface, and a wireless communication circuit electrically connects to the second conductive part and is configured to transmit or receive a signal having a specified frequency. The first surface faces the third surface in a folded state, the third direction is the same as the first direction in an unfolded state, and the first conductive part and the second conductive part are electrically connected in the folded state.
