Abstract
A method of an electronic device, the electronic device, and a chipset of the electronic device are provided. The method of the electronic device includes, while the electronic device operates as a master of the NAN cluster based on a first master preference, transmitting discovery signals outside of DWs by using the Wi-Fi communication circuitry; while transmitting the discovery signals outside of the DWs, determining to switch a state of the processor from a wake-up state to a sleep state; based on the determination, changing control information for the NAN cluster by using the processor that is in the wake-up state, wherein the changed control information for the NAN cluster includes data regarding a second master preference distinct from the first master preference; after providing the changed control information to the Wi-Fi communication circuitry by using the processor, switching the state of the processor to the sleep state; and while the processor is in the sleep state switched from the wake-up state, transmitting the changed control information that includes the data regarding the second master preference by using the Wi-Fi communication circuitry.
