Electronic device

An electronic device comprising:

• a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a signal via wireless communication;
• and
• at least one processor configured to adjust at least one of a transmission power of the wireless communication and a transmission speed of the wireless communication based on specific absorption rate (SAR) information associated with electromagnetic waves generated by the electronic device,
• wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
• determine an initial target transmission power of the wireless communication based on the SAR information,
• determine whether the initial target transmission power is equal to or greater than a current transmission power of the wireless communication,
• in response to a determination that the initial target transmission power is equal to or greater than the current transmission power, determine whether a connection of the wireless communication of the electronic device is maintainable at a transmission power less than the initial target transmission power, and
• adjust the transmission power of the wireless communication based on the determination of whether the connection of the wireless communication is maintainable at the transmission power less than the initial target transmission power.

A method of operating an electronic device comprising:

• determining an initial target transmission power of a wireless communication based on specific absorption rate (SAR) information associated with electromagnetic waves generated by the electronic device;
• determining whether the initial target transmission power is less than a current transmission power of the wireless communication;
• in response to determining that the initial target transmission power is less than the current transmission power, determining whether, upon reducing the current transmission power to the initial target transmission power, a connection of the wireless communication of the electronic device is maintainable;
• and
• adjusting at least one of a transmission power and a transmission speed of the wireless communication based on the determination of whether the connection of the wireless communication is maintainable at the initial target transmission power.
