Abstract

Various embodiments provide an antenna device that includes: a metal member configured to have a length that contributes to at least a part of an electronic device; a printed circuit board (PCB) configured to be feed-connected to a preset position of the metal member in order to apply the metal member as an antenna radiator; and at least one electronic component electrically connected to a position different from the feeding position of the metal member and grounded to the PCB, and provide an electronic device that includes the same. Accordingly, the antenna device is grounded to the PCB in a desired position of the metal member by using the basically provided electronic component so that it is possible to exclude a separate electrical connection member, thereby reducing the cost, increasing the use of space, enhancing the degree of freedom of the design of the antenna radiator.
