Abstract:
An electronic device and method for updating authentication information in the electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a short-range communication unit configured to provide a short-range communication and a controller configured to update information for authentication information from advertisement service information received from an Access Point (AP) identified through the short-range communication unit, download authentication information using the update information for authentication information, and connect the electronic device to the AP based on the authentication information.
Abstract:
An apparatus is provided comprising: a communication interface; and at least one processor configured to: synchronize the apparatus with at least one electronic device, receive, via the communication interface, a signal from the electronic device, and determine a distance between the apparatus and the electronic device based on a transmission time and a reception time of the signal.
Abstract:
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes an information exchange control module configured to receive a first frame from an external electronic device before being connected to the external electronic device. If the first frame received from the external device includes identification information indicating a plurality of electronic devices connected to the external electronic device, transmit, to the external electronic device, a second frame including data information requested to be transmitted from each of the plurality of electronic devices.
