Abstract

Disclosed is an electronic device for performing ultra wide band (UWB) multi-ranging. The electronic device includes a communication system that performs UWB communication with multiple terminals and a processor. The multiple terminals include a smart key and at least one digital key. The smart key is a device that is ranged on a one off basis in response to a user input and the at least one digital key includes at least one device that is periodically ranged. The processor set priorities of the plurality of terminals, select one of the plurality of terminals between which pieces of ranging timing overlap based on the priorities of the plurality of terminals when the pieces of ranging timing of the plurality of terminals overlap, and perform ranging on the selected terminal through the communication system.
