Abstract
An electronic device includes a first antenna element, an array antenna including a plurality of second antenna elements spaced apart from each other, a camera, and a processor. The processor is configured to identify a field of view (FoV) of the camera, identify a distance from an external object within the FoV by using the first antenna element and a first set of at least one antenna element of the plurality of second antenna elements, based on the FoV as a first value, identify a distance from the external object by using the first antenna element and a second set of at least one antenna element of the plurality of second antenna elements, based on the FoV as a second value, adjust a focus distance of the camera based on the identified distance, and obtain an image for the external object through the camera having the adjusted focus distance.
