1. Augmented reality (AR) glasses comprising:
a main housing configured to accommodate lenses of the AR glasses, wherein at least a portion of the main housing includes a conductive member configured to operate as an antenna;
a sub-housing forming a leg of the AR glasses;
a printed circuit board (PCB) disposed in the sub-housing;
a non-radiative conductive hinge structure configured to interconnect the main housing and the sub-housing such that the sub-housing is foldable with respect to the main housing, wherein the non-radiative conductive hinge structure electrically connects the PCB and the conductive member; and
a wireless communication circuit disposed in the sub-housing,
wherein the non-radiative conductive hinge structure comprising:
a first conductive connection structure attached to a portion of the main housing and including a first hole;
a second conductive connection structure attached to a portion of the sub-housing and including a second hole, wherein the first hole and the second hole are aligned in a predetermined direction; and
a conductive fastening member inserted into the first hole of the first conductive connection structure and the second hole of the second conductive connection structure to interconnect the main housing and the sub-housing,
wherein the wireless communication circuit is configured to transmit and/or receive a signal of a predetermined frequency band via the conductive member based on an electrical path including the non-radiative conductive hinge structure and the conductive member by directly feeding power to the second conductive connection structure.
