1. An electronic device comprising:
a plurality of antennas configured to receive signals from a signal source; and
a control circuit configured to:
determine, from a phase difference between signals received through a first antenna and a second antenna among the plurality of antennas, a first reception angle with respect to an x-axis of the electronic device,
determine, from a phase difference between signals received through the first antenna and a third antenna among the plurality of antennas, a second reception angle with respect to a y-axis of the electronic device, and
filter the signals received from the signal source through the plurality of antennas according to the first signal reception angle and the second signal reception angle,
wherein the first antenna and the second antenna are aligned in a first direction parallel to the x-axis,
wherein the first antenna and the third antenna are misaligned in a second direction parallel to the y-axis such that a misalignment distance in the first direction between the first antenna and the third antenna is formed, and
wherein the control circuit is further configured to correct the second signal reception angle based on the first signal reception angle and the misalignment distance.
