Method and apparatus for managing audio signals

The present disclosure relates to an electronic device and a method for operating same, which can divide a recognition section for voice recognition, process different types of voice recognition corresponding to the divided recognition sections, and improve a voice recognition rate. According to an embodiment, a method for recognizing a voice by an electronic device may include: detecting a voice input; determining the direction of the voice and a beamforming direction. Voice recognition is based on the voice when the direction of the voice and the beamforming direction correspond to each other. Different types of voice recognition may be performed for voices input in a first section and a second section, based on divided types of voice input sections, when the direction of the voice and the beamforming direction do not correspond to each other.
