Method for positioning using wireless communication and electronic device for supporting same

Abstract

An electronic device may include: a communication module that supports ultra-wideband communication; a memory that stores correction values respectively corresponding to a plurality of data ranges divided according to a specified condition, in relation to data for positioning of an external electronic device; a processor operatively connected to the communication module and the memory; and a location determination module operatively connected to the processor. The location determination module may be configured to: acquire a phase difference of arrival of a signal calculated on the basis of the signal received from the external electronic device via the communication module; determine a data range corresponding to the acquired phase difference of arrival of the signal from among the plurality of data ranges; and calculate the angle of arrival of the signal by using a correction value corresponding to the determined data range from among the correction values. Various other embodiments are possible.
