Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/063325
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An electronic device according to an embodiment may comprise one or more wireless communication modules including: a first communication module supporting an NAN protocol; and a second communication module using a frequency band different from that of the first communication module. The electronic device may comprise one or more processors operatively connected to the one or more wireless communication modules. The electronic device may comprise a memory electrically connected with the processors and storing instructions executable by the processors. When the instructions are executed by the processors in the electronic device, the processors may perform a plurality of operations via the one or more wireless communication modules. The plurality of operations may include an operation for transmitting or receiving, via the first communication module, data to or from an external electronic device included in an NAN cluster along with the electronic device. The plurality of operations may include an operation for transmitting associated information about the NAN cluster to the external electronic device after the data transmission and reception operation supported via the first communication module ends. The plurality of operations may include an operation for handing off the associated information about the NAN cluster from the first communication module to the second communication module. The plurality of operations may include an operation for maintaining the NAN cluster on the basis of the associated information about the NAN cluster via the second communication module.
