Electronic device comprising conductive housing and antenna

Abstract

Disclosed is an electronic device including a display; a rear plate including a conductive material; a side member including a conductive material and disposed to surround a space between the display and the rear plate; a printed circuit board disposed between the display and the rear plate; an antenna pattern at least partially disposed between the printed circuit board and the rear plate and at a position corresponding to a slit between the rear plate and the side member; and a communication module which generates a communication signal transmitted to a power feeding unit. A portion of the antenna pattern may be electrically connected to the power feeding unit. Another portion of the antenna pattern may be electrically connected to a ground region of the printed circuit board. The power feeding unit may be connected to a portion of the side member. Various other embodiments are possible.
