1. An electronic device comprising:
a housing including a front plate, a rear plate facing away from the front plate, and a side member surrounding a space between the front plate and the rear plate and connecting one side of the front plate to one side of the rear plate, wherein at least part of the side member is a conductive portion;
an antenna structure including at least part of the conductive portion; and
a printed circuit board disposed in the space and including at least one processor,
wherein the conductive portion includes:
a first conductive pattern;
a second conductive pattern disposed at least partially coupled to the first conductive pattern; and
a third conductive pattern disposed at least partially coupled to the first conductive pattern and spaced apart from the second conductive pattern,
wherein the antenna structure includes:
a first feeding part electrically connected to a first location of the first conductive pattern;
a second feeding part electrically connected to a second location of the first conductive pattern, wherein the second location is closer to the third conductive pattern than the first location;
a first ground part electrically connected to a third location between the first location and the second location of the first conductive pattern;
a second ground part electrically connected to a fourth location between the second location and the third location of the first conductive pattern;
a switch electrically connected to a fifth location between the first location and the third location of the first conductive pattern;
a third ground part electrically connected to a sixth location of the second conductive pattern; and
a fourth ground part electrically connected to a seventh location of the third conductive pattern.
