Abstract

An electronic device comprises a plurality of antennas, wherein each of the plurality of antennas are spaced apart from each other, a first communication circuit electrically connected with the plurality of antennas, a plurality of array antennas comprising a first array antenna disposed adjacent to at least one of the plurality of antennas, and a second array antenna disposed adjacent to another antenna different from the at least one antenna of the plurality of antennas, a second communication circuit electrically connected with the first array antenna and the second array antenna, and at least one control circuit electrically connected with the first communication circuit and the second communication circuit, wherein the at least one control circuit is configured to obtain receive sensitivities of the plurality of antennas through the first communication circuit; activate at least one array antenna of the first array antenna and the second array antenna through the second communication circuit based at least on the receive sensitivities; and control the activated at least one array antenna to form at least one beam for communication with an external electronic device.
