Claim 10:
11. An electronic device comprising:
a housing comprising a first plate facing a first direction, a second plate facing a second direction that is opposite to the first direction, and a side member surrounding a space between the first plate and the second plate and connecting one side of the first plate and one side of the second plate;
a support member disposed in the space between the first plate and the second plate;
a display disposed on a first surface of the support member and exposed through at least a portion of the first plate;
an antenna module disposed on a second surface facing a direction that is opposite to the first surface of the support member and comprising one or more patch antennas;
a printed circuit board (PCB) disposed on the second surface of the support member;
a wireless communication circuit disposed on the PCB;
a first conductive member included in the side member, and extending from a first end to a second end toward a third direction;
a second conductive member included in the side member, and physically spaced apart from the first conductive member by a first division part;
a first connector protruding from one point between the first end and the second end of the first conductive member toward an interior of the housing, and physically connected to the support member;
a second connector protruding from the second end of the first conductive member toward an interior of the housing, and physically connected to the support member; and
a protrusion protruding from one point spaced apart from a first end of the second conductive member, which is adjacent to the first division part, by a distance in a fourth direction that is a direction that is opposite to the third direction, toward an interior of the housing, and electrically connected to the second conductive member,
wherein the antenna module is disposed at a location corresponding to at least one of a first opening defined by the first conductive member, the support member, the first connector and the second connector, or a second opening defined by the first conductive member, the second conductive member, the first connector, the support member and the protrusion, and
wherein the wireless communication circuit is electrically connected to the protrusion and the antenna module.
