CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S) 
     This application is a continuation of International Application No. PCT/KR2021/006549, which was filed on May 26, 2021, and claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2020-0083451, filed on Jul. 7, 2020, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which are incorporated by reference herein their entirety. 
    
    
     BACKGROUND 
     Technical Field 
     One or more embodiments of the instant disclosure generally relate to an electronic device including a dual polarization antenna. 
     Description of Related Art 
     Along with the development of wireless communication technology, electronic devices (e.g., electronic devices for communication) are widely used in everyday life and thus consumption of content by users using such devices has increased exponentially. The rapid increase in the consumption of content may cause network capacity to gradually reach its limit. To meet the demand for wireless data traffic, which has increased since the deployment of 4G communication systems, efforts have been made to develop a new communication system (e.g., 5th generation (5G), pre-5G communication system, or new radio (NR)) for transmitting and/or receiving signals in high frequency (e.g., mmWave) bands (e.g., band of about 1.8 GHz, and about 3 GHz-about 300 GHz). 
     SUMMARY 
     The next generation communication technology uses frequencies in a high frequency (e.g., mmWave) band (e.g., band of about 1.8 GHz, and about 3 GHz-about 300 GHz) to transmit and/or receive signals and thus may need a new antenna module structure as well as to have it efficiently arranged to overcome the high free space loss and improving the antenna gain in consideration of characteristics of the frequency band. 
     An antenna module operating in the high frequency band may include at least one conductive patch capable of easily implementing high gain and dual polarization. According to an embodiment, the antenna module may include multiple conductive patches arranged to be spaced apart at regular intervals on a printed circuit board (e.g., an antenna structure). In case of implementing dual polarization, the conductive patches may be configured to form both vertical polarization and horizontal polarization through a pair of feeders that are disposed at symmetrical positions with respect to an imaginary line passing through the center of the conductive patch so as to simultaneously transmit separate radio signals via two carriers at the same frequency. For example, the feeders may be configured as a first structure in which one feeder may be disposed on a first virtual line parallel to a first side of the printed circuit board and passing through the center of the conductive patch, and the other feeder may be disposed on a second virtual line parallel to a second side of the printed circuit board and passing through the center of the conductive patch. For example, the feeders may be configured as a second structure in which one feeder may be disposed on a third virtual line forming a first angle with the first virtual line passing through the center of the conductive patch, and the other feeder may be disposed on a fourth virtual line perpendicular to the third virtual and passing through the center of the conductive patch. 
     In the first structure of feeders, the conductive patch (e.g., antenna element) may include a characteristic in which dual polarized equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) characteristic is biased toward one polarized wave. Accordingly, the conductive patch (e.g., antenna element) including the first structure of feeders may have single antenna system (e.g., single input single output (SISO)) performance higher than that of the second structure of feeders. 
     In the second structure of feeders, the conductive patch (e.g., antenna element) may include a characteristic in which antenna radiation characteristics of each of the double polarization waves are uniform. Accordingly, the conductive patch (e.g., antenna element) including the second structure of feeders may show multi-antenna system (e.g., multiple input multiple output (MIMO)) performance higher than that of the first structure of feeders. 
     The conductive patch included in the antenna module includes a fixed structure (e.g., the first structure or the second structure) of feeders and thus may be degraded in wireless performance in a specific wireless environment (e.g., multi-antenna system or a single antenna system). 
     Various embodiments of the disclosure provide a device and a method for adaptively configuring the power feeding structure of antenna elements to be adaptable in a wireless environment in an electronic device. 
     According to an embodiment, an electronic device may include: a housing; a wireless communication circuit arranged in an internal space of the housing; an antenna module arranged in the internal space and includes a printed circuit board arranged in the internal space and array antenna including multiple antenna elements arranged on the printed circuit board, wherein each one of the multiple antenna elements includes a first feeder arranged at a first point on a first virtual line passing through the center of the one of the multiple antenna elements, and is electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit through a first electrical path, a second feeder arranged at a second point on a second virtual line passing through the center of the one of the multiple antenna elements and perpendicularly crossing the first virtual line, and is electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit through a second electrical path, and a third feeder arranged at a third point on a third virtual line passing through the center of the one of the multiple antenna elements, and is electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit through a third electrical path; and a switch arranged on the first electrical path, the second electrical path, and the third electrical path, and is configured to electrically connect or disconnect the first feeder, the second feeder, and the third feeder to the wireless communication circuit. 
     According to an embodiments, an electronic device may include: a first housing; a second housing connected to the first housing to be spaced apart from the first housing at a first distance in a first state and spaced apart from the first housing at a second distance different from the first distance in a second state; a wireless communication circuit arranged in an internal space of the first housing; an antenna module arranged in the internal space and includes a printed circuit board arranged in the internal space and array antenna including multiple antenna elements arranged on the printed circuit board, wherein each one of the multiple antenna elements includes a first feeder arranged at a first point on a first virtual line passing through the center of the one of the multiple antenna elements, and is electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit through a first electrical path, a second feeder arranged at a second point on a second virtual line passing through the center of the one of the multiple antenna elements and perpendicularly crossing the first virtual line, and is electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit through a second electrical path, and a third feeder arranged at a third point on a third virtual line passing through the center of the one of the multiple antenna elements, and is electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit through a third electrical path; and a switch arranged on the first electrical path, the second electrical path, and the third electrical path, and configured to electrically connect or disconnect the first feeder, the second feeder, and the third feeder to the wireless communication circuit.

       FIG.  2    is a block diagram  200  illustrating an example configuration of an electronic device  101  supporting legacy network communication and 5G network communication according to various embodiments. 
     Referring to  FIG.  2   , according to various embodiments, the electronic device  101  may include a first communication processor (e.g., including processing circuitry)  212 , a second communication processor (e.g., including processing circuitry)  214 , a first radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC)  222 , a second RFIC  224 , a third RFIC  226 , a fourth RFIC  228 , a first radio frequency front end (RFFE)  232 , a second RFFE  234 , a first antenna module  242 , a second antenna module  244 , and an antenna  248 . The electronic device  101  may include the processor  120  and the memory  130 . The network  199  may include a first network  292  and a second network  294 . According to an embodiment, the electronic device  101  may further include at least one component among the components illustrated in  FIG.  1   , and the network  199  may further include at least one other network. According to an embodiment, the first communication processor  212 , the second communication processor  214 , the first RFIC  222 , the second RFIC  224 , the fourth RFIC  228 , the first RFFE  232 , and the second RFFE  234  may be at least a part of the wireless communication module  192 . According to an embodiment, the fourth RFIC  228  may be omitted, or may be included as a part of the third RFIC  226 . 
     The first communication processor  212  may establish a communication channel of a band to be used for wireless communication with the first network  292 , and may support legacy network communication via the established communication channel. According to an embodiment, the first network may be a legacy network including second generation (2G), third generation (3G), fourth generation (4G), or long-term evolution (LTE) network. The second communication processor  214  may establish a communication channel corresponding to a designated band (e.g., approximately 6 GHz to 60 GHz) among bands to be used for wireless communication with the second network  294 , and may support 5G network communication via the established communication channel. According to an embodiment, the second network  294  may be a 5G network (e.g., new radio (NR)) defined in 3GPP. In addition, according to an embodiment, the first communication processor  212  or the second communication processor  214  may establish a communication channel corresponding to another designated band (e.g., approximately 6 GHz or less) among bands to be used for wireless communication with the second network  294 , and may support 5G network communication via the established communication channel. According to an embodiment, the first communication processor  212  and the second communication processor  214  may be implemented in a single chip or a single package. According to an embodiment, the first communication processor  212  or the second communication processor  214  may be implemented in a single chip or a single package, together with the processor  120 , the sub-processor  123 , or the communication module  190 . 
     In the case of transmission, the first RFIC  222  may convert a baseband signal generated by the first communication processor  212  into a radio frequency (RF) signal in the range of approximately 700 MHz to 3 GHz, which is used in the first network  292  (e.g., a legacy network). In the case of reception, an RF signal is obtained from the first network  292  (e.g., a legacy network) via an antenna (e.g., the first antenna module  242 ), and may be preprocessed via an RFFE (e.g., the first RFFE  232 ). The first RFIC  222  may convert the preprocessed RF signal into a baseband signal so that the baseband signal is processed by the first communication processor  212 . 
     In the case of transmission, the second RFIC  224  may convert a baseband signal generated by the first communication processor  212  or the second communication processor  214  into an RF signal (hereinafter, a 5G Sub6 RF signal) in an Sub6 band (e.g., approximately 6 GHz or less) used in the second network  294  (e.g., a 5G network). In the case of reception, a 5G Sub6 RF signal may be obtained from the second network  294  (e.g., a 5G network) via an antenna (e.g., the second antenna module  244 ), and may be preprocessed by an RFFE (e.g., the second RFFE  234 ). The second RFIC  224  may convert the preprocessed 5G Sub6 RF signal into a baseband signal so that the signal may be processed by a corresponding communication processor among the first communication processor  212  or the second communication processor  214 . 
     The third RFIC  226  may convert a baseband signal generated by the second communication processor  214  into an RF signal (hereinafter, a 5G Above6 RF signal) of a 5G Above6 band (e.g., approximately 6 GHz to 60 GHz) to be used in the second network  294  (e.g., a 5G network). In the case of reception, a 5G Above6 RF signal is obtained from the second network  294  (e.g., a 5G network) via an antenna (e.g., the antenna  248 ), and may be preprocessed by the third RFFE  236 . The third RFIC  226  may convert the preprocessed 5G Above6 RF signal into a baseband signal so that the signal is processed by the second communication processor  214 . According to an embodiment, the third RFFE  236  may be implemented as a part of the third RFIC  226 . 
     According to an embodiment, the electronic device  101  may include the fourth RFIC  228 , separately from or, as a part of, the third RFIC  226 . In this instance, the fourth RFIC  228  may convert a baseband signal produced by the second communication processor  214  into an RF signal (hereinafter, an IF signal) in an intermediate frequency band (e.g., approximately 9 GHz to 11 GHz), and may transfer the IF signal to the third RFIC  226 . The third RFIC  226  may convert the IF signal into a 5G Above6 RF signal. In the case of reception, a 5G Above6 RF signal may be received from the second network  294  (e.g., a 5G network) via an antenna (e.g., the antenna  248 ), and may be converted into an IF signal by the third RFIC  226 . The fourth RFIC  228  may convert the IF signal into a baseband signal so that the second communication processor  214  is capable of processing the baseband signal. 
     According to an embodiment, the first RFIC  222  and the second RFIC  224  may be implemented as at least a part of a single chip or a single package. According to an embodiment, the first RFFE  232  and the second RFFE  234  may be implemented as at least a part of a single chip or single package. According to an embodiment, at least one of the first antenna module  242  or the second antenna module  244  may be omitted or may be combined with another antenna module, to process RF signals of a plurality of corresponding bands. 
     According to an embodiment, the third RFIC  226  and the antenna  248  may be disposed in the same substrate, and may form a third antenna module  246 . For example, the wireless communication module  192  or the processor  120  may be disposed in a first substrate (e.g., a main PCB). In this instance, the third RFIC  226  is disposed in a part (e.g., a lower part) of a second substrate (e.g., a sub PCB) different from the first substrate, and the antenna  248  is disposed in another part (e.g., an upper part), so that the third antenna module  246  may be formed. By disposing the third RFIC  226  and the antenna  248  in the same substrate, the length of a transmission line therebetween may be reduced. For example, this may reduce a loss (e.g., a diminution) of a high-frequency band signal (e.g., approximately 6 GHz to 60 GHz) used for 5G network communication, the loss being caused by a transmission line. Accordingly, the electronic device  101  may improve the quality or speed of communication with the second network  294  (e.g., a 5G network). 
     According to an embodiment, the antenna  248  may be implemented as an antenna array including a plurality of antenna elements which may be used for beamforming. In this instance, the third RFIC  226 , for example, may include a plurality of phase shifters  238  corresponding to a plurality of antenna elements, as a part of the third RFFE  236 . In the case of transmission, each of the plurality of phase shifters  238  may shift the phase of a 5G Above6RF signal to be transmitted to the outside of the electronic device  101  (e.g., a base station of a 5G network) via a corresponding antenna element. In the case of reception, each of the plurality of phase shifters  238  may shift the phase of a 5G Above6 RF signal received from the outside via a corresponding antenna element into the same or substantially the same phase. This may enable transmission or reception via beamforming between the electronic device  101  and the outside. 
     The second network  294  (e.g., a 5G network) may operate independently (e.g., Standalone (SA)) from the first network  292  (e.g., a legacy network), or may operate by being connected thereto (e.g., Non-Standalone (NSA)). For example, in the 5G network, only an access network (e.g., 5G radio access network (RAN) or next generation RAN (NG RAN)) may exist, and a core network (e.g., next generation core (NGC)) may not exist. In this instance, the electronic device  101  may access the access network of the 5G network, and may access an external network (e.g., the Internet) under the control of the core network (e.g., an evolved packed core (EPC)) of the legacy network. Protocol information (e.g., LTE protocol information) for communication with the legacy network or protocol information (e.g., new radio (NR) protocol information) for communication with the 5G network may be stored in the memory  130 , and may be accessed by another component (e.g., the processor  120 , the first communication processor  212 , or the second communication processor  214 ).

According to an embodiment, the wireless communication circuit  1310  may be configured to transmit and/or receive a third signal through the first polarized antenna array or the second polarized antenna array including the third feeder  1343 , the sixth feeder  1353 , the ninth feeder  1363 , and/or the 12th feeder  1373 . 
     According to an embodiment, the switch  1320  may configure a power feeding structure of the multiple conductive patches  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  included in the antenna module  1330 , based on control of the processor  1302 . According to an embodiment, the switch  1320  may be connected to the first feeder  1341  of the first conductive patch  1340  through a first electrical path  1322 , connected to the second feeder  1342  through a second electrical path  1324 , and connected to the third feeder  1343  through a third electrical path  1326 . By way of example, the switch  1320  may include an absorptive switch capable of electrically isolating each of the electrical paths  1322 ,  1324 , and/or  1346  of the feeders  1341 ,  1342 , and/or  1343 . For example, in case that the processor  1302  configures an operation of the first power feeding structure, the switch  1320  may connect the wireless communication circuit  1310  to the first feeder  1341  and the second feeder  1342 . Here, the switch  1320  may block (or short-circuiting) electrical connection between the wireless communication circuit  1310  and the third feeder  1343  through the third electrical path  1326 . For example, in case that the processor  1302  configures an operation of the second power feeding structure, the switch  1320  may connect the wireless communication circuit  1310  to the third feeder  1343 . Here, the switch  1320  may block (or short-circuiting) electrical connection between the wireless communication circuit  1310 , and the first feeder  1341  and the second feeder  1342  through the first electrical path  1322  and the second electrical path  1424 . According to an embodiment, the switch  1320  may control the feeders  1351 ,  1352 ,  1353 ,  1361 ,  1362 ,  1363 ,  1371 ,  1372 , and/or  1373  of the second conductive patch  1350 , the third conductive patch  1360 , and/or the fourth conductive patch  1370  included in the antenna module  1330  in the same manner as for the feeders  1341 ,  1342 , and/or  1343  of the first conductive patch  1340 . 
     According to an embodiment, the wireless communication circuit  1310  may include the switch  1320 . For example, the wireless communication circuit  1310  may configure a power feeding structure of the multiple conductive patches  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  included in the antenna module  1330 , based on control of the processor  1302 . 
     According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may adaptively configure the power feeding structure of the antenna module  1330 . According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  to adaptively configure a power feeding structure of the antenna module  1330 , based on wireless environment information (e.g., whether multi-antenna system is supported or reception signal strength) of the electronic device  1300 . For example, in case that the multiple conductive patches  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  included in the antenna module  1330  have the second power feeding structure or the first power feeding structure, radiation performances (e.g., equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP)) of signals having different polarization characteristics may be similar to each other, as shown in part (a) or part (c) in  FIG.  14   , in an environment not affected by an internal component (e.g., the conductive part) of the electronic device  1300 . For example, in case that the multiple conductive patches  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  included in the antenna module  1330  have the first power feeding structure, radiation performances (e.g., EIRP) of signals having different polarization characteristics may be similar to each other, as shown in part (d) in  FIG.  14   , in an environment affected by an internal component (e.g., the conductive part) of the electronic device  1300 . That is, in case of having the first power feeding structure in the state of being mounted in the electronic device  1300 , the power feeding structures of the antenna module  1330  may be appropriately selected to improve the processing rate of a multi-antenna transmission method since radiation performances (e.g., EIRP) of signals having different polarization characteristics are similar to each other. For example, in case that the multiple conductive patches  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  included in the antenna module  1330  have the second power feeding structure, radiation performance (e.g., EIRP) of a signal having a first polarization characteristic (e.g., horizontal polarization) may be relatively better than that of a signal having a second polarization characteristic (e.g., vertical polarization), as shown in part (B) in  FIG.  14   , in an environment affected by an internal component (e.g., the conductive part) of the electronic device  1300 . That is, in case of having the second power feeding structure in a state of being mounted in the electronic device  1300 , the antenna module  1330  may be determined to be appropriate to widen a beam coverage since the antenna gain of the first signal of the first polarization characteristic is relatively higher. For example, in case that the electronic device  1300  supports multi-antenna communication for wireless communication with an external device, the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  so that the antenna module  1330  has the first power feeding structure. For example, in case that the electronic device  1300  supports single antenna communication for wireless communication with an external device, the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  so that the antenna module  1330  has the second power feeding structure. 
     According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  to adaptively configure the power feeding structure of the antenna module  1330 , based on a state (e.g., folded state, unfolded state, open state, or closed state) of the electronic device  1300 . For example, in case that the electronic device  1300  is in the unfolded state (e.g., the unfolded state in  FIG.  11 A ), the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  so that the antenna module  1330  has the first power feeding structure (or the second power feeding structure). In case that the electronic device  1300  is in the folded state (e.g., the folded state in  FIG.  11 D ), the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  so that the antenna module  1330  has the second power feeding structure (or the first power feeding structure). For example, in case that the electronic device  1300  is in the closed state (e.g., the closed state in  FIG.  12 A ), the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  so that the antenna module  1330  has the first power feeding structure (or the second power feeding structure). In case that the electronic device  1300  is in the open state (e.g., the open state in  FIG.  12 B ), the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  so that the antenna module  1330  has the second power feeding structure (or the first power feeding structure).

       FIG.  15    is a flowchart  1500  for configuring a power feeding structure in an electronic device based on a wireless environment according to an embodiment of the disclosure. In the following embodiment, the operations may be sequentially performed, but are not necessarily sequentially performed. For example, the sequential position of each operation may be changed, or two or more operations may be performed in parallel. For example, the electronic device in  FIG.  15    may correspond to the electronic device  101  in  FIG.  1    or  FIG.  2   , the electronic device  300  in  FIG.  3 A , the electronic device  1100  in  FIG.  11 A , the electronic device  1200  in  FIG.  12 A , or the electronic device  1300  in  FIG.  13   . 
     Referring to  FIG.  15   , according to an embodiment, in operation  1501 , the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120  in  FIG.  1    and/or the processor  1302  in  FIG.  13   ) may configure an antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) for wireless communication with an external device (e.g., the electronic device  104  or the server  108  in  FIG.  1   ) with a first power feeding structure. According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may configure a predetermined first power feeding structure of the electronic device  1300  as the power feeding structure of the multiple conductive patches  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  included in the antenna module  1330 . For example, based on control of the processor  1302 , the switch  1320  may electrically connect the first feeder  1341 , the second feeder  1342 , the fourth feeder  1351 , the fifth feeder  1352 , the seventh feeder  1361 , the eighth feeder  1362 , the tenth feeder  1371 , and/or the 11th feeder  1372  of a conductive patch  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  to the wireless communication circuit  1310 . Here, the switch  1320  may block (or short-circuiting) electrical connection between the wireless communication circuit  1310  and the third feeder  1343 , the sixth feeder  1353 , the ninth feeder  1363 , and/or the 12th feeder  1373 . 
     According to an embodiment, in operation  1503 , the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120 ,  1302 ) may identify whether wireless communication with an external device (e.g., the electronic device  104  or the server  108  in  FIG.  1   ) supports multi-antenna communication (multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) communication). According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may identify whether communication with an external device supports multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) communication, based on control information received from an external device (e.g., gNB or eNB). By way of example, the control information may include an RRC connection setup message or an RRC connection reconfiguration message. According to an embodiment, in case that signal strength (a received signal strength indication (RSSI)) received from an external device satisfies a predetermined condition, the processor  1302  may determine that the wireless communication with the external electronic device supports multi-antenna communication. 
     According to an embodiment, in case that the wireless communication with an external device (e.g., the electronic device  104  or the server  108  in  FIG.  1   ) supports multi-antenna communication (e.g., “Yes” in operation  1503 ), in operation  1507 , the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120 ,  1302 ) may transmit and/or receive data to/from the external device through an antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) configured as the first power feeding structure. 
     According to an embodiment, in case that the wireless communication with an external device (e.g., the electronic device  104  or the server  108  in  FIG.  1   ) does not support multi-antenna communication (e.g., “No” in operation  1503 ), in operation  1505 , the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120 ,  1302 ) may change the antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) into the second power feeding structure for wireless communication with the external device (e.g., the electronic device  104  or the server  108  in  FIG.  1   ). According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  so that the multiple conductive patches  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  included in the antenna module  1330  are configured as the second power feeding structure. For example, based on control of the processor  1302 , the switch  1320  may electrically connect the third feeder  1343 , the sixth feeder  1353 , the ninth feeder  1363 , and/or the 12th feeder  1373  of the conductive patch  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  to the wireless communication circuit  1310 . Here, the switch  1320  may block electrical connection between the wireless communication circuit  1310  and the first feeder  1341 , the second feeder  1342 , the fourth feeder  1351 , the fifth feeder  1352 , the seventh feeder  1361 , the eighth feeder  1362 , the tenth feeder  1371 , and/or the 11th feeder  1372  of the conductive patch  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 ,  1370 . 
     According to an embodiment, in case that the antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) is changed into the second power feeding structure (e.g., operation  1505 ), in operation  1507 , the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120 ,  1302 ) may transmit and/or receive data to/from an external device through the antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) configured as the second power feeding structure. 
       FIG.  16    is a flowchart  1600  for configuring a power feeding structure in an electronic device based on a state according to an embodiment of the disclosure. In the following embodiment, the operations may be sequentially performed, but are not necessarily sequentially performed. For example, the sequential position of each operation may be changed, or two or more operations may be performed in parallel. For example, the electronic device in  FIG.  16    may correspond to the electronic device  101  in  FIG.  1    or  FIG.  2   , the electronic device  300  in  FIG.  3 A , the electronic device  1100  in  FIG.  11 A , the electronic device  1200  in  FIG.  12 A , or the electronic device  1300  in  FIG.  13   . 
     Referring to  FIG.  16   , according to an embodiment, in operation  1601 , the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120  in  FIG.  1    and/or the processor  1302  in  FIG.  13   ) may configure an antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) as the first power feeding structure (or the second power feeding structure) corresponding to a current state (e.g., the unfolded state or the closed state) of the electronic device for wireless communication with an external device (e.g., the electronic device  104  or the server  108  in  FIG.  1   ). According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  so that the multiple conductive patches  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  included in the antenna module  1330  are configured as the first power feeding structure. 
     According to an embodiment, in operation  1603 , the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120 ,  1302 ) may identify whether a state of the electronic device is changed. According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may identify whether the state of the electronic device  1100  in  FIG.  11 A  is changed from the unfolded state to the folded state. By way of example, the state change of the electronic device  1100  in  FIG.  11 A  may be identified based on sensor data acquired through a sensor module (e.g., the sensor module  176  in  FIG.  1   ) included in the first housing  1110  and/or the second housing  1120 . According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may identify whether a state of the electronic device  1200  in  FIG.  12 A  is changed from the closed state to the folded state. By way of example, the state change of the electronic device  1200  in  FIG.  12 A  may be identified based on movement information of the slide plate  1260 , which is acquired through a sensor module (e.g., the sensor module  176  in  FIG.  1   ). 
     According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may classify a case in which signal strength (e.g., received signal strength indication) received from an external device satisfies a predetermined condition as a first state, and a case in which signal intensity received from an external device does not satisfy a predetermined condition as a second state. 
     According to an embodiment, in case that the state of the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120 ,  1302 ) is maintained (e.g., “No” in operation  1603 ), in operation  1607 , the electronic device may transmit and/or receive data to/from the external device through an antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) configured as the first power feeding structure (or the second power feeding structure). 
     According to an embodiment, in case that the state of the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120 ,  1302 ) is changed (e.g., “Yes” in operation  1603 ), in operation  1605 , the electronic device may change the antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) into the second power feeding structure (or the first power feeding structure) for wireless communication with the external device (e.g., the electronic device  104  or the server  108  in  FIG.  1   ). According to an embodiment, the processor  1302  may control the switch  1320  so that the multiple conductive patches  1340 ,  1350 ,  1360 , and/or  1370  included in the antenna module  1330  are configured as the second power feeding structure. 
     According to an embodiment, in case that the antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) is changed into the second power feeding structure (or the first power feeding structure) (e.g., operation  1605 ), in operation  1607 , the electronic device (e.g., the processor  120 ,  1302 ) may transmit and/or receive data to/from the external device through the antenna module (e.g., the antenna module  1330  in  FIG.  13   ) configured as the second power feeding structure (or the first power feeding structure).
