1. An electronic device comprising:
a housing including a first housing and a second housing;
a flexible display;
at least one contact structure;
a first processor disposed in the first housing;
a first ultrawide band (UWB) antenna;
a second UWB antenna;
a third UWB antenna; and
a fourth UWB antenna,
wherein, in a first state in which the first housing and the second housing are in contact with each other through the at least one contact structure, at least part of the flexible display is entered into at least one of the first housing and the second housing,
wherein, in a second state in which the first housing and the second housing are spaced apart from each other more than a designated distance, at least part of the flexible display is extended to be viewed from an outside of the electronic device,
wherein, in the first state, the first processor is configured to transmit and/or receive a signal of a designated frequency band, based on at least two of the first UWB antenna and the second UWB antenna which are disposed in the first housing, and the third UWB antenna which is disposed in the second housing and is electrically connected to the first processor through the at least one contact structure, and
wherein, in the second state, the first processor is configured to transmit and/or receive a signal of a designated frequency band, based on at least two of the first UWB antenna and the second UWB antenna, and the fourth UWB antenna which is disposed in the flexible display.
