Claim 15:
16. An electronic device comprising:
a first housing including a first side housing, wherein the first side housing of the first housing includes:
a first conductive part extending in a first direction;
a second conductive part spaced apart from the first conductive part and extending in the first direction; and
a first split part interposed between an end of the first conductive part and an end of the second conductive part,

a second housing including a second side housing, wherein the second side housing of the second housing includes:
a third conductive part extending in the first direction;
a fourth conductive part spaced apart from the third conductive part and extending in the first direction; and
a second split part interposed between an end of the third conductive part and an end of the fourth conductive part;

a connection structure connected to the first housing and the second housing such that the first housing and the second housing are mutually folded or unfolded, wherein the electronic device includes a first state, in which the first side housing and the second side housing contact each other, and a second state, in which the first side housing and the second side housing are spaced apart from each other, the first conductive part is spaced apart from the third conductive part while overlapping the third conductive part in the first state, and the second conductive part is spaced apart from the fourth conductive part while overlapping the fourth conductive part in the first state;
a first switch configured to selectively and electrically connect the first conductive part to the second conductive part;
a second switch configured to selectively and electrically connect the third conductive part to the fourth conductive part;
a first connection configured to electrically connect the first conductive part to the third conductive part in the first state;
a second connection configured to electrically connect the second conductive part to the fourth conductive part, in the first state; and
a wireless communication circuit operatively connected to the first switch and the second switch, and electrically connected to a first point of the second conductive part and a second point of the third conductive part,
wherein the wireless communication circuit is configured to transmit and receive a wireless communication signal having a specific band by feeding power to the first point or the second point.
