    Abstract: An electronic device is provided for use in a NAN cluster. The electronic device includes Wi-Fi communication circuitry; a memory that stores instructions; and a processor that executes the instructions to, while the electronic device operates as a master of the NAN cluster based on a first master preference, control the Wi-Fi communication circuitry to transmit discovery signals outside of discovery windows (DWs), based on a determination that a state of the processor is switched from a wake-up state to a sleep state, change control information for the NAN cluster, wherein the changed control information for the NAN cluster includes data regarding a second master preference that is distinct from the first master preference, and provide the changed control information to the Wi-Fi communication circuitry. The Wi-Fi communication circuitry, while the processor is switched to the sleep state, transmits the changed control information for the NAN cluster.

    Abstract: A method of operating an electronic device in a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) cluster and an electronic device thereof are provided. The method includes receiving, from another electronic device in the NAN cluster, via a direct communication path, a NAN service discovery frame (SDF) including information for indicating at least one discovery window (DW) among a plurality of DWs, when the other electronic device operates in an awake mode, and switching, based on the received information, an operation mode from a sleep mode to the awake mode in the at least one DW among the plurality of DWs.
