METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR PERFORMING WIRELESS COMMUNICATION BY USING CHANNEL LIST

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/164466

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

An electronic device for scanning for a wireless connection is disclosed. The electronic device comprises: a housing; a wireless communication circuit located in the housing, and supporting a wireless protocol so as to wirelessly connect to one of a plurality of APs using the same first credential information at one time point; a processor located in the housing and electrically connected to the communication circuit; and a memory located in the housing and electrically connected to the processor, wherein instructions, which can be stored by the memory, allow, during execution thereof, the processor to: wirelessly connect, through the wireless communication circuit, to a first AP using the first credential information; receive, through the wireless communication circuit, a list of first channels at least partially associated with at least one second AP having a coverage overlapping that of the first AP among the plurality of APs; and scan, through the wireless communication circuit, for the at least one second AP using the first credential information, by using the list of the first channels. The list of the first channels can include, but not all, a plurality of channels among channels available from the wireless protocol. Other embodiments are also possible.
