There is provided a wearable device including a frame, including a conductive portion used as an antenna, a cover coupled to the frame and including an electrode to detect an electrical signal from body when worn, a wireless communication circuit to transmit or receive a radio frequency signal by the antenna, a processor to obtain biometric information of a user by the electrical signal, and a switch circuit connected to the ground of the antenna. The electrode may be connected to the processor through a first electrical path to selectively pass the electrical signal, and may be connected to the switch circuit through a second electrical path to selectively pass the RF signal. The processor may be configured to control the switch circuit such that the electrode is selectively connected to the ground of the antenna.
