Apparatus and method for controlling operation cycle of electronic device in wireless communication system

An electronic device, comprising:

• a first communication circuit;
• a second communication circuit;
• a processor configured to be electrically connected with the first communication circuit and the second communication circuit;
• and
• a memory configured to be electrically connected with the processor, wherein the memory comprises instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
• operate the second communication circuit in a first state where an operation cycle of the second communication circuit is a first operation cycle,
• while the second communication circuit is in the first state:
• obtain location information of the electronic device via the first communication circuit;
• identify an event of changing an operation state from the first state to a second state of the second communication circuit, based on the obtained location, by communicating with a network via the second communication circuit;
• and
• in response to identifying the event of changing the operation state, operate the second communication circuit in the second state where the operation cycle of the second communication circuit is a second operation cycle higher than the first operation cycle,
• determine that the operation state is in one of a third state and a fourth state, based on movement speed information of the electronic device, remaining battery power information of the electronic device, and which of the movement speed information of the electronic device or the remaining battery power information of the electronic device takes priority.
