Abstract

An electronic device including an EM sensor module and a method for controlling the electronic device. An electronic device includes an electromagnetic (EM) sensor module, an antenna module electrically connected to the EM sensor module, a memory operationally connected to the EM sensor module, and a processor operationally connected to the EM sensor module, The EM sensor module is configured to detect an electromagnetic signal around the electronic device using the antenna module, determine whether the electromagnetic signal is a valid signal from at least one external electronic device, and send electromagnetic detection data related to all or at least part of the electromagnetic signal to the processor based on the electromagnetic signal being a valid signal.
