According to an embodiment, an electronic device may comprise: a flexible display, at least one microphone, a sensor, a communication module comprising communication circuitry, and at least one processor operatively connected with the flexible display, the at least one microphone, the sensor, and the communication module. The at least one processor may be configured to: based on receiving a call signal from an external electronic device through the communication module, identify whether the call signal is a video call signal, based on the call signal being the video call signal, identify a folding state of the electronic device through the sensor, adjust a sound signal received through the at least one microphone based on the folding state, and control the communication module to transmit the adjusted sound signal to the external electronic device.

Electronic device adjusting sound signal and method for controlling the electronic device

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication module, a sensor module, a sound input module, a sound output module, a memory including a buffer, and a processor. The processor is configured to determine whether an external electronic device has at least one speaker and/or microphone, select, a speech reception device from among the electronic device and the external electronic device based on sensing information received when a call is connected, select a speech transmission device, from among the electronic device and the external electronic device based on a comparison of a speech signal received from the electronic device with a speech signal received from the external electronic device when a call is connected, and if the speech transmission device and the speech reception device are different devices, enable at least one microphone included in the speech transmission device, disable at least one speaker included in the speech transmission device, disable at least one microphone included in the speech reception device, and enable at least one speaker included in the speech reception device, acquire an echo reference signal related to reception speech received from the speech reception device and store the echo reference signal in the buffer, determine, based on comparison of the stored echo reference signal to transmission speech received from the speech transmission device, an EPD value relating to an echo signal included in the transmission speech, and cancel the echo signal by using the echo reference signal and the determined EPD value.

Electronic device and method for controlling speech input/output of electronic device

The present document relates to a method and an electronic device for adjusting an output level of a speaker on the basis of a distance from an external electronic device, and the electronic device may comprise: a speaker; a first communication circuit; a second communication circuit; a processor; and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to: receive a signal, broadcast by an external electronic device, through the first communication circuit; determine a distance from the external electronic device at least on the basis of the received signal; and adjust, at a designated level, an output level of the speaker for outputting an audio signal received from the external electronic device by using the second communication circuit, at least on the basis of the distance determined to belong to a designated range. In addition, various embodiments are possible.

Method and electronic device for adjusting output level of speaker on basis of distance from external electronic device

According to various embodiments of the disclosure, an electronic device includes a first speaker, a second speaker, at least one sensor that detects a state of at least one of the first speaker and the second speaker and at least one processor electrically connected to the first speaker, the second speaker and the at least one sensor, wherein the at least one processor outputs an audio signal through the first speaker and the second speaker, identifies states of the first speaker and the second speaker by using the at least one sensor, and decreases a volume level of an audio signal output by the first speaker and increases a volume level of an audio signal output by the second speaker when it is determined that the state of the first speaker is an abnormal state. In addition, various embodiments understood from the specification are possible.

Electronic device for controlling volume level of audio signal on basis of states of multiple speakers

An electronic device and method are disclosed. The electronic device includes a housing, microphone, wireless communication circuit, processor, memory, and stylus pen. The processor is configured to implement the method, including: when the stylus pen is located in the elongated hole, operate both the at least one first microphone and the second microphone to detect sound, and when the stylus pen is not located in the elongated hole, operate only the first microphone to detect sound.
