The display unit may be controlled to be displayed on the display unit, and the function control unit may control the broadcast signal not to be displayed on the display unit when the broadcast closure signal is received.
A magnet is attached to the antenna, and the sensor may include a magnetic sensor for detecting a magnetic force of the magnet corresponding to the movement of the magnet attached to the antenna. The magnetic sensor may transmit the broadcast closed signal to the function control means when the magnetic force is detected, and the magnetic sensor may transmit the broadcast open signal to the function control means when the magnetic force is not detected. .
The apparatus may further include a holding input unit which blocks the function control unit from receiving the detection signal from the sensor. The holding input unit transmits a cutoff signal for blocking the function control means from receiving the detection signal from the sensor, and the function control means turns off the power of the magnetic sensor when receiving the cutoff signal. can do.
The antenna according to an embodiment of the present invention receives a broadcast signal, and the mode function in which the received broadcast signal is displayed on the electronic device according to the detection signal of the sensor is controlled, the sensor to send the detection signal to the sensor It includes a sensing object detected by. The sensor may include a magnetic sensor, and the sensing object may include a magnet.
As described above, according to the electronic device of the present invention, the user of the electronic device can easily control whether the broadcast signal is displayed by controlling a mode function of displaying a broadcast signal as the antenna moves or is detached.
