Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing that includes a first surface, a second surface facing the first surface, and a side surface surrounding a space between the first and second surfaces, a printed circuit board (PCB) that is arranged inside the housing and includes at least one antenna unit, and a communication circuit that is arranged inside the PCB or between the PCB and the housing.
Claims15
An electronic device comprising:
- a housing comprising:
- a first surface,
- a second surface facing the first surface, and
- a side surface surrounding a space between the first and second surfaces;
- a printed circuit board (PCB) disposed inside the housing and including at least one antenna;
- and
- a communication circuit disposed inside the PCB or between the PCB and the housing,
- wherein the PCB comprises:
- a first substrate,
- a second substrate facing the first substrate, and
- a spacer disposed between the first and second substrates, the spacer including an opening extending from the first substrate to the second substrate, a side surface of the spacer being plated or surrounded by a conductive material,
- wherein each of the at least one antenna comprises:
- a first conductive member formed on the first substrate,
- a second conductive member formed on the second substrate and facing the first conductive member through the opening, and
- a feeder connecting the second conductive member to the communication circuit, and
- wherein the communication circuit is configured to:
- feed the feeder, and
- transmit and receive a signal of a specified frequency band through an electrical path formed through the feeder and through the second conductive member.
