LOCATION ESTIMATION METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR PERFORMING THE SAME
First Claim
1. An electronic device, comprising:
- a memory;
a communication circuit; and
a processor configured to operatively connect with the memory and the communication circuit,wherein the processor is configured to;
send identification information of a base station attached to the electronic device via the communication circuit to a server;
receive first base station information about base stations included in a first area on the base station from the server;
store the first base station information in the memory; and
estimate a location of the electronic device based on properties of a signal received from at least one of the base stations included in the first area or the first base station information.

Abstract
An electronic device includes a memory, a communication circuit, and a processor configured to operatively connect with the memory and the communication circuit. The processor is configured to send identification information of a base station attached to the electronic device via the communication circuit to a server, receive first base station information about base stations included in a first area on the base station from the server, store the first base station information in the memory, and estimate a location of the electronic device based on properties of a signal received from at least one of the base stations included in the first area or the first base station information.
