  • Publication number: 20230413348
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for transmitting audio data in an electronic device. The electronic device can divide the audio data according to a range of a frequency band determined according to a codec applied to a communication link, and then can transmit the audio data divided in different time intervals to an external electronic device. The electronic device may preferentially transmit the audio data as the frequency band lowers, and when the transmission of audio data corresponding to the lower frequency band is successful, can transmit audio data corresponding to a higher frequency band in different time intervals.
