Abstract

Disclosed is an electronic device. Other various embodiments as understood from the specification are also possible. The electronic device may include an antenna, a communication module including a transceiver, and a control circuit. The control circuit may be configured to radiate a first signal generated from the transceiver through the antenna, to obtain at least part of a second signal obtained by combining a forward signal delivered from the communication module to the antenna and a reverse signal reflected from the antenna, and to determine a reflection coefficient for the antenna based on at least part of the first signal and at least part of the second signal.
