Abstract

An electronic device including a plurality of antennas is provided. The electronic device includes a first radiator including at least one matching block that is connected with a ground area and at least one side of the first radiator. The first radiator is configured to transmit and receive a first frequency signal through a first antenna resonance length corresponding to a first area of the first radiator, and to transmit and receive a second frequency signal through a second antenna resonance length corresponding to a second area opposite to the first area. A second radiator is connected with the ground area and is configured to transmit and receive a third frequency signal through a third antenna resonance length corresponding to a third area adjacent to the first radiator.
