Abstract
An electronic device and a grip recognition method for reducing the SAR of the electronic device are provided. The electronic device of the present disclosure includes an antenna, a coupler, a processor electrically coupled to the antenna and the coupler, and a memory electrically coupled to the processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to detect a change of a transmit power value using the coupler during transmission of a radio signal through the antenna. The instructions further cause the processor to determine whether the electronic device is being gripped based on the change of the transmit power value.
