According to one embodiment, an electronic device receives a broadcast signal includes a high-speed transmission channel and a low-speed transmission channel. The electronic device estimates a CN when the electronic device is in an environment corresponding to a stationary state, based on a measured reception power, reception sensitivity required for receiving a broadcast service of the high-speed transmission channel and a necessary CN required for receiving the broadcast service of the high-speed transmission channel, and controls a processing of switching a demodulation target between the high-speed transmission channel and the low-speed transmission channel, based on a difference between the estimated CN and the measured CN.
