Abstract

An electronic device includes a camera including at least one lens, an antenna array capable of outputting a beamforming signal in a direction corresponding to an axis of the at least one lens, a communication circuit electrically connected with the antenna array, and a processor. The processor may identify a function being executed through the processor, may output a first specified beamforming signal capable of communicating with an external electronic device through the antenna array by using the communication circuit, when the function does not use the camera, and may output a second specified beamforming signal capable of detecting an external object through the antenna array by using the communication circuit, when the function uses the camera.
