The present invention may include an electronic device comprising: a communication module for supporting first short-range wireless communication and second short-range wireless communication; and a processor which is functionally connected to the communication module, wherein the processor is configured to: establish a connection to a first external device over at least one channel in a band through the communication module, using the first short-range wireless communication; while the connection to the first external device is established, identify a request for performing the second short-range wireless communication with a second external device; and connect the second external device to the first external device or an external communication server over the at least one channel in the band, using the second short-range wireless communication, in response to the request. However, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and may include other embodiments.

Wireless communication method and electronic device for providing same

The present disclosure relates to a wireless communication method using near field communication, and an electronic device, and in the electronic device supporting first near field communication and second near field communication, a request for the second near field communication is confirmed while the electronic device is connected to a first external device through the first near field communication, circumstantial information related to the first external device (for example, the intensity of an electric field signal) is checked on the basis of at least the confirmation, and a second external device can be connected to the first external device (for example, an AP) or to a third external device (for example, base station (server)) through the electronic device by using the second near field communication, when the circumstantial information satisfies a predetermined condition. In addition, other examples are possible.
