Claims15
An electronic device, comprising:
- an antenna module configured to include a first antenna and a second antenna;
- a Wi-Fi module configured to communicate with an external electronic device using the antenna module;
- and
- a processor configured to control the Wi-Fi module,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- communicate with a first external electronic device using the first antenna and the second antenna;
- determine whether a second external electronic device is an audio device, when the electronic device is connected with the second external electronic device in a state where the electronic device communicates with the first external electronic device using the first antenna and the second antenna;
- when it is determined that the second external electronic device is not the audio device, control the Wi-Fi module to alternately communicate with the first external electronic device and the second external electronic device using the second antenna, while the electronic device communicates with the first external electronic device using the first antenna;
- and
- when it is determined that the second external electronic device is the audio device, control the Wi-Fi module to communicate with the second external electronic device using the second antenna, while the electronic device communicates with the first external electronic device using the first antenna.
