Abstract
In an electronic device and/or an operating method of the electronic device, the electronic device may include: a communication circuit configured to perform short-range wireless communication through a first frequency band and/or a second frequency band lower than the first frequency band; and a processor, wherein the processor may be configured to identify whether a channel in the first frequency band is a non-preferred scanning channel (non-PSC), based on reduced neighbor report (RNR) information included in a signal received through the second frequency band from an external electronic device, determine a quality of a signal to be received through the first frequency band, based on transmit power control (TPC) information received from the external electronic device upon identifying that the channel in the first frequency band is the non-PSC, and determine whether to perform an operation of scanning the non-PSC, based on whether a quality of a signal to be transmitted through the first frequency band satisfies a specified condition. In addition, various embodiments are possible.
