Abstract

A method and a system for processing a heart rate (HR) in an electronic device are provided. The method includes detecting a photoplethysmography (PPG) signal, producing a first HR from the detected PPG signal, producing a second HR from the detected PPG signal, determining a resultant HR by analyzing the first HR and the second HR, and displaying the resultant HR.
