Abstract

According to various embodiments, the electronic device may include: a first antenna having a first polarization characteristic, a second antenna a having a second polarization characteristic different from the first polarization characteristic, a switch operatively connected to the first antenna and the second antenna, and a processor operatively connected to the first antenna and the second antenna through the switch. The processor may be configured to identify, based on transmitting at least one packet using the first antenna, at least one timestamp of the packet, control the electronic device to transmit a first area of the packet based on a first timestamp of the identified timestamp using the first antenna, switch the first antenna to the second antenna based on a second timestamp of the identified timestamp, and control the electronic device to transmit a second area of the packet based on the second timestamp of the packet using the second antenna.
