1. An electronic device, comprising:
a housing structure,
wherein the housing structure comprises:
a plurality of antennas;
a hinge;
a first housing connected to the hinge and comprising a first surface and a second surface disposed opposite the first surface; and
a second housing connected to the hinge and comprising a third surface and a fourth surface disposed opposite the third surface,
a sensor module for detecting a value related to a relative position between the first housing and the second housing;
a memory storing information on an output of at least one of the plurality of antennas according to the relative position between the first housing and the second housing; and
a processor operatively connected to the sensor module,
wherein in a folded state, the first surface faces the third surface, and in an unfolded state, the first surface and the third surface face in a same direction,
wherein the processor is configured to:
identify the relative position between the first housing and the second housing based on the value detected by the sensing module,
and
control the output of the at least one of the plurality of antennas based on the information stored in the memory and the identified relative position.
