1. An electronic device comprising:
a foldable housing including:
a hinge structure extending along a first axis;
a first housing structure connected to the hinge structure and including a first face that faces in a first direction, a second face that faces away from the first face, and a first side member surrounding a first space between the first face and the second face,
wherein the first side member includes:
a first conductive portion extending parallel to the first axis adjacent the hinge structure;
a second conductive portion extending perpendicular to the first axis;
a third conductive portion including a portion extending parallel to the first conductive portion;
a first non-conductive portion inserted between the first conductive portion and the second conductive portion; and
a second non-conductive portion inserted between the second conductive portion and the third conductive portion;
a second housing structure connected to the hinge structure and including a third face that faces in a second direction, a fourth face that faces away from the third face, and a second side member surrounding a second space between the third face and the fourth face,
wherein the second side member includes:
a fourth conductive portion extending parallel to the first axis adjacent the hinge structure;
a fifth conductive portion extending perpendicular to the fourth conductive portion;
a sixth conductive portion including a portion extending parallel to the fourth conductive portion;
a third non-conductive portion inserted between the fourth conductive portion and the fifth conductive portion; and
a fourth non-conductive portion inserted between the fifth conductive portion and the sixth conductive portion,
wherein the second housing structure is foldable with respect to the first housing structure about the first axis,
wherein, in a folded state of the foldable housing, the first face faces the third face, and in an unfolded state, the second direction is a same as the first direction, and
wherein, in the folded state, when viewed from outside the second conductive portion, the second non-conductive portion and the fourth non-conductive portion are aligned with each other, and when viewed from outside the hinge structure, the first non-conductive portion and the third non-conductive portion are aligned with each other;
a flexible display extending from the first face to the third face; and
at least one wireless communication circuit electrically connected to a first position of the second conductive portion adjacent to the second non-conductive portion and configured to transmit and/or receive a signal in a frequency band of 500 MHz to 6 GHz.
