An electronic device that carries out communication and an operation method therefor are provided. The electronic device includes a short-range communication circuit and at least one processor operatively connected to the short-range communication circuit, wherein the at least one processor may be configured to establish a first communication connection to a first external electronic device via the short-range communication circuit, transmit, to a second external electronic device via the short-range communication circuit, first information associated with the first communication connection, if an event requiring a second communication connection between the second external electronic device and the first external electronic device occurs in the second external electronic device, receive, from the second external electronic device via the short-range communication circuit, second information notifying that the second communication connection will be established, and disestablish the first communication connection via the short-range communication circuit.

Electronic device that carries out communication and operation method therefor

A wearable device comprises a display, a sensor, a communication circuit, memory comprising instructions, and at least one processor. The instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the wearable device to identify a context representing a situation of a user and a position of an object associated with the context based on information obtained through the sensor and the communication circuit, display a first visual object superimposed on a periphery of the object based on verifying that the object is positioned within a first area in a field of view (FoV) area of the wearable device, display by blinking the first visual object based on verifying that the object is positioned within a second area in the FoV area, and display a second visual object representing the object in the FoV area based on verifying that the object is positioned outside of the FoV area.

Electronic device and method for providing notification information based on gaze of user

According to various embodiments, an electronic device may include: a communication module comprising communication circuitry configured to support a first communication method and a second communication method, a memory, and a processor operatively connected to the communication module and the memory. The processor may be configured to: control the electronic device to connect to a first AP included in a first AP list based on the first communication method, receive a signal based on the second communication method transmitted from an external electronic device, obtain account information about the external electronic device and a second AP list including information about a second AP connected with the external electronic device from the external electronic device based on the second communication method upon receiving the signal, determine at least one AP, based on the first AP list and the second AP list based on account information about the electronic device and the account information about the external electronic device at least partly matching, and control the electronic device to perform wireless communication with the external electronic device based on the first communication method through the determined AP.

Method and electronic device for communicating based on access point

According to an embodiment, an electronic device may include a communication circuit and at least one processor operatively connected to the communication circuit, and the at least one processor may be configured to connect, via the communication circuit, a communication with a first external electronic device, receive, from the first external electronic device via the communication circuit, a first packet requesting generation of a temporary identity resolving key (IRK) of the electronic device by a second external electronic device, generate a temporary IRK, set a validity period for the temporary IRK, and transmit, to the first external electronic device via the communication circuit, a second packet including the temporary IRK and the validity period for the temporary IRK.

Electronic device for transmitting and/or receiving identity information and operating method thereof

An electronic device is configured to receive at least one advertisement (ADV) packet from an external electronic device using the wireless communication circuit. The electronic device is configured to determine whether to upload identification information of the first external electronic device based on at least one of information of a channel through which the at least one ADV packet is received or information of the external electronic device included in the at least one ADV packet. The electronic device is configured to transmit the identification information of the external electronic device and location information of the electronic device to an external server device, in response to a determination to upload the identification information. In addition to the above, various embodiments identified through the disclosure are possible.

Method for locating external electronic device and electronic device therefor

Provided is a method and apparatus for performing a Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) handoff through coordination in a wireless communication system. A first access point (AP) device that transmits a first Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) advertising packet sets a transmission period identically for the first BLE advertising packet and a second BLE advertising packet, determines transmission timings of the first BLE advertising packet and the second BLE advertising packet, transmits a setting message comprising information about the set transmission period of the second BLE advertising packet and information about the determined transmission timing of the second BLE advertising packet to the second AP device, transmits the first BLE advertising packet to a terminal, and performs a WiFi connection with the terminal, based on a determination by the terminal.
