US 11,442,493 B2 · Electronic device for controlling clock frequency and operating method therefor

Abstract

Disclosed in various embodiments of the present invention are an electronic device for controlling a clock frequency and an operating method therefor. The electronic device comprises a communication module and a processor, wherein the processor can be configured to check, by using the communication module, a state of a downlink channel of a carrier to be transmitted, determine, on the basis of the channel state, a reference frequency band for a signal to be transmitted through the communication module, determine, as a first clock frequency, a clock frequency for at least one constituent element included in the electronic device if the reference frequency band is a first reference frequency band, and determine, as a second clock frequency, a clock frequency for at least one constituent element included in the electronic device if the reference frequency band is a second reference frequency band. Other embodiments are also possible.

Dependent claims

An electronic device comprising:

a communication module;
and
a processor,
wherein the processor is configured to:
determine whether the electronic device is operating in a carrier aggregation mode,
when the electronic device is operating in the carrier aggregation mode, identify a downlink channel state of a primary component carrier and a second component carrier, for transmission using the communication module,
select at least one component carrier, based on the downlink channel state,
determine a clock frequency for at least one component comprised in the electronic device as a first clock frequency when a reference frequency band is a first reference frequency band, and
determine the clock frequency for the at least one component comprised in the electronic device as a second clock frequency when the reference frequency band is a second reference frequency band.

6 more elements

An electronic device comprising:

a communication module configured to perform communication in a carrier aggregation mode using a plurality of component carriers;
at least one processor;
and
a memory configured to be connected to the processor, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to:
select at least one component carrier, based on downlink channel state information about each of a primary component carrier and a second component carrier among the plurality of component carriers,
determine a frequency band of the selected at least one component carrier as a reference frequency band, and
