摘要
A method for using legacy Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Peer-to-Peer (P2P) simultaneously is provided. The method includes entering a device discovery process of Wi-Fi P2P, if use of a Wi-Fi P2P function is requested while using a legacy Wi-Fi function, acquiring a Group Owner (GO) right of Wi-Fi P2P in the device discovery process, performing a listen state over the same channel as a channel where the legacy Wi-Fi function is in use, through the acquisition of the GO right, and performing a search state over a social channel of Wi-Fi P2P, and repeating the listen state and the search state until the device discovery process is ended.

What is claimed is:1. An electronic device for connecting with a Wi-Fi network, the electronic device comprising:a communication circuitry; and at least one processor configured to:establish a legacy Wi-Fi connection via the communication circuitry, and while the legacy Wi-Fi connection is established:receive a request related to file sharing between the electronic device and an external device using a Wi-Fi peer-to-peer (P2P) connection, in response to the receiving, set a group owner (GO) right of the Wi-Fi P2P connection based on an autonomous group owner mode, identify a channel being used for the legacy Wi-Fi connection, receive a message for establishing the Wi-Fi P2P connection from the external device through the identified channel which is determined as being used for the Wi-Fi P2P connection based on the group owner right, and transmit a response to the message on the channel to the external device. 2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to establish the Wi-Fi P2P connection during the legacy Wi-Fi connection. 3. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to disable the autonomous group owner mode when a device discovery process is ended. 4. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein the at least one processor is capable to perform the device discovery process based on at least one of a menu selection, an execution of a predetermined application, or a Wi-Fi P2P connection request from another P2P device. 5. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the channel used for the legacy Wi-Fi connection is one channel among a non-social channel and a social channel. 6. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the social channel includes at least one of a channel #1, a channel #6, or a channel #11. 7. A method for controlling an electronic device, the method comprising:establishing a legacy Wi-Fi connection via a communication circuitry of the electronic device; and while the legacy Wi-Fi connection is established:receiving a request related to file sharing between the electronic device and an external device using a Wi-Fi peer-to-peer (P2P) connection; in response to the receiving, setting a group owner (GO) right of the Wi-Fi P2P connection based on an autonomous group owner mode; identifying a channel being used for the legacy Wi-Fi connection; receiving a message for establishing the Wi-Fi P2P connection from the external device through the identified channel which is determined as being used for the Wi-Fi P2P connection based on the group owner right; and transmitting a response to the message on the channel to the external device. 8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the method is further comprising establishing the Wi-Fi P2P connection during the legacy Wi-Fi connection. 9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the method is further comprising disabling the autonomous group owner mode when a device discovery process is ended. 10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the method is further comprising performing the device discovery process based on at least one of a menu selection, an execution of a predetermined application, or a Wi-Fi P2P connection request from another P2P device. 11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the channel used for the legacy Wi-Fi connection is one channel among a non-social channel and a social channel. 12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the social channel includes at least one of a channel #1, a channel #6, or a channel #11. 13. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by at least one processor of an electronic device, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:establishing a legacy Wi-Fi connection via a communication circuitry of the electronic device; and while the legacy Wi-Fi connection is established:receiving a request related to file sharing between the electronic device and an external device using a Wi-Fi peer-to-peer (P2P) connection; in response to the receiving, setting a group owner (GO) right of the Wi-Fi P2P connection based on an autonomous group owner mode; identifying a channel being used for the legacy Wi-Fi connection; receiving a message for establishing the Wi-Fi P2P connection from the external device through the identified channel which is determined as being used for the Wi-Fi P2P connection based on the group owner right; and transmitting a response to the message on the channel to the external device. 14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the operations are further comprising establishing the Wi-Fi P2P connection during the legacy Wi-Fi connection. 15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14 , wherein the operations are further comprising disabling the autonomous group owner mode when a device discovery process is ended. 16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations are further comprising performing the device discovery process based on at least one of a menu selection, an execution of a predetermined application, or a Wi-Fi P2P connection request from another P2P device. 17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14 , wherein the channel used for the legacy Wi-Fi connection is one channel among a non-social channel and a social channel. 18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the social channel includes at least one of a channel #1, a channel #6, or a channel #11.
