A method for communication using a plurality of communication protocols and an electronic device thereof are provided. An electronic device according to various exemplary embodiments includes at least one antenna; and a control circuitry configured to perform a communication with an external electronic device by using a first protocol and a second protocol via the at least one antenna, wherein the control circuitry is configured to identify context information associated with the communication; determine, at least based on the context information, a priority associated with the first protocol and the second protocol; determine, among the first protocol and the second protocol, a protocol, based at least in part on the priority; and communicate, via the at least one antenna, using the determined protocol with the external electronic device.

Method for communication using plurality of protocols and electronic device thereof

Disclosed is an electronic device which may provide a multi-feeding antenna operating in multiple frequency bands by reducing performance degradation, and can contribute to slimness by implementing at least a portion of the patterns in a printed circuit board.

Multi feeding antenna and electronic device including the same

An electronic device including a proximity recognition module configured to recognize second electronic device proximate to the first electronic device, a communication module configured to wirelessly transmit and receive data to and from the second electronic device, and a power supply module configured to apply at least one of power charged in the first electronic device and power wirelessly supplied from the second device as power for the communication module, based on the recognition with respect to the second device. Other embodiments are also possible.

Wireless data input and output method and apparatus

A method and apparatus for locating a mobile terminal by use of messages received to the mobile terminal are provided. The mobile terminal locating method may include creating at least one location related candidate for the mobile terminal by use of a message that is received to the mobile terminal, and determining a location of the mobile terminal by matching the created location related candidate to stored place information. The current location of the mobile terminal may be recognized by simply analyzing the received messages without the need for installation of additional device on the mobile terminal.

Method and apparatus for locating a mobile terminal using received messages

A semantic-based searching apparatus and method which can search for desired information from various types of media using associative properties of search target objects are provided. The semantic-based searching apparatus stores an associative search structure that previously stores a semantic index. The associative search structure is to obtain a final search object corresponding to an input search query. The semantic index configuration includes feature metadata used to identify a specific object, semantic entity metadata to indicate semantic entities corresponding to the feature metadata, and semantic relation metadata to indicate a relation between the semantic entities. The semantic-based searching apparatus uses semantic metadata stored in conformity with the semantic index configuration, the semantic index, and the associative search structure to generate a search result corresponding to the input search query.
