Disclosed is an electronic device which includes wireless communication circuitry, a processor, and a memory. The memory stores one or more instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to establish a first communication link with a first external electronic device, to establish a second communication link with a second external electronic device, to transmit first communication link information for estimating a channel of the first communication link to the second external electronic device over the second communication link, to receive first data from the first external electronic device over the first communication link, and to transmit a first response message for the first data to the first external electronic device over the first communication link. The first response message includes a bit configured not to be processed by the first external electronic device, and the bit includes reception information about the first data of the electronic device.

Electronic device for transmitting data in bluetooth network environment, and method therefor

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes wireless communication circuitry, a processor, and a memory. The processor may be configured to establish a first communication link with a first external electronic device using a first address of the electronic device through the wireless communication circuitry, establish a third communication link with the first external electronic device using the second address or a third address of the electronic device, and transmit control information to the first external electronic device over the third communication link while receive content data packet from the first external electronic device over the first communication link.

Electronic device for transmitting data packets in Bluetooth network environment, and method therefor

Method comprising: establishing a first link with a first external electronic device, based on the Bluetooth network; receiving information associated with a second link created between the first external electronic device and a second external electronic device, from the first external electronic device; attempting to receive a first data packet transmitted from the second external electronic device by monitoring the second link based at least partially on the information associated with the second link; identifying whether a response message is received from the first external electronic device; transmitting, to the second external electronic device, a response message indicating 'ACK' for the first data packet, when the first data packet is normally received, and when the response message is received from the first external electronic device; and withholding a response message for reception of the first data packet, when the first data packet is not normally received.

Electronic device for transmitting response message in Bluetooth network environment and method therefor

An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device includes a wireless communication circuit, a processor operatively connected to the wireless communication circuit, and a memory operatively connected to the processor. The processor executes a method, including establishing a first link with a first external electronic device using the wireless communication circuit, establishing a second link with a second external electronic device using the wireless communication circuit, determining whether to share, with the second external electronic device, first link information for establishing a channel of the first link based at least on information of the second external electronic device and information of the first external electronic device, transmitting the first link information to the second external electronic device via the second link based on the determination, and transmitting a data packet to the first external electronic device via the first link.

Method for sharing channel information in Bluetooth network, and electronic device therefor

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

Disclosed is an electronic device includes a wireless communication circuit configured to support Bluetooth communication; at least one processor operatively connected to the wireless communication circuit; and a memory operatively connected to the at least one processor, wherein the memory stores one or more instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform a plurality a plurality of operations comprising: receiving first data transmitted from a first external electronic device via a first link between the electronic device and the first external electronic device; when an acknowledgement (ACK) is not received from a second external electronic device, determining that the first external electronic device or the electronic device should retransmit the first data to the second external electronic device based on at least one of status information about the electronic device, status information about the first external electronic device, communication quality of the first link, or communication quality of the second link.

Electronic device for retransmitting data in Bluetooth network environment and method thereof

According to an embodiment, an electronic device may include a Bluetooth communication circuit and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to: perform a first communication connection based on a first Bluetooth communication with a first audio electronic device having a first Bluetooth address by using the Bluetooth communication circuit, receive, from a second audio electronic device having the first Bluetooth address, a second communication connection request based on the first Bluetooth communication while performing the first communication connection, transmit, to the second audio electronic device, a second communication connection request response signal including rejection information for the received second communication connection request by using the Bluetooth communication circuit due to the first communication connection, and transmit, to the first audio electronic device, a message related to the rejection information for the second communication connection request through the first communication connection. Other embodiments are possible.
