Abstract
According to an example embodiment of the disclosure, an electronic device may include: an antenna array comprising a plurality of antenna elements; a wireless communication circuit configured to perform communication with a signal source outside of the electronic device through the antenna array in an ultra-wideband (UWB); and a processor electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit, wherein the wireless communication circuit is configured to simultaneously radiate a first linearly polarized wave through a first antenna element among the plurality of antenna elements and a second linearly polarized wave through a second antenna element among the plurality of antenna elements, wherein an electric field of the first linearly polarized wave oscillates in a first direction, and wherein an electric field of the second linearly polarized wave oscillates in a second direction at an acute angle with respect to the first direction, and wherein the processor is configured to perform a positioning function with respect to the signal source based on a difference between arrival times of signals received from the signal source through the first and second antenna elements.
