Claim 7:
8. An electronic device comprising:
a housing;
a flexible display that is viewable through at least a portion of the housing;
a plurality of antenna modules positioned inside the housing, each of the plurality of antenna modules including at least one antenna array;
a memory; and
at least one processor operatively connected to the plurality of antenna modules and the memory and configured to perform beamforming using the at least one antenna array,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
perform communication based at least on a first beam of a first beam book including information on beams associated with at least some of the plurality of antenna modules, using the plurality of antenna modules;
detect a change in a form of the flexible display during communication based at least on the first beam of the first beam book, wherein the change in the form includes folding or unfolding;
perform communication based at least on a second beam of a second beam book including information on beams associated with at least some of the plurality of antenna modules and including information on beams different from at least a portion of the first beam book, in response to at least the change in the form; and
perform beam searching from a beam adjacent to the second beam.
