Abstract:
Disclosed is an electronic device which includes an antenna array including a plurality of antenna elements and a wireless communication circuit configured to transmit and/or receive a signal having a frequency in a range of 3 GHz to 300 GHz. The wireless communication circuit includes a plurality of pairs of transmit and receive paths. The wireless communication circuit is configured to allow a first pair of the plurality of pairs to use the transmit path of the first pair and a second pair of the plurality of pairs to use the receive path of the second pair, to transmit a first signal using the transmit path of the first pair, to monitor the receive path of the second pair, and to determine whether the first signal is at least partially blocked, based at least in part on a result of monitoring the receive path.
