Abstract
An electronic device for estimating body temperature is provided. The electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a first temperature sensor configured to measure a first temperature of body skin; a second temperature sensor configured to measure a second temperature at a position spaced apart from the body skin; and a processor configured to estimate a body temperature based on the first temperature, to estimate an ambient temperature of a main body based on the second temperature, to calculate a heat loss, which occurs from a reference body location to the body skin due to the ambient temperature of the main body, based on the estimated ambient temperature of the main body, and to obtain a final body temperature by correcting the body temperature based on the heat loss due to the ambient temperature of the main body.
