Abstract
An electronic device configured to establish a first Bluetooth low energy (BLE) connection with an external electronic device, measure a distance between the external electronic device and the electronic device based on a first distance measurement scheme, identify whether the distance is within a set range between a first distance and a second distance. Based on a determination that the distance is within the set range, measure a distance between the external electronic device and the electronic device based on a second distance measurement scheme and establish a second BLE connection with the external electronic device. Based on a determination that the distance measured based on the second distance measurement scheme is shorter than the second distance, measure a distance between the electronic device and the external electronic device based on an ultra-wide band (UWB) technology.
