1. An electronic device comprising:
a communication processor;
at least one radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) connected to the communication processor;
an antenna connected to the at least one RFIC and configured to transmit and receive a signal corresponding to at least one communication network, and
memory storing instructions,
wherein the instructions, when executed by the communication processor, cause the electronic device to:
control the electronic device to receive a signal corresponding to a first communication network from a first base station corresponding to the first communication network supporting a first frequency band, through the antenna,
identify information related to a second communication network supporting a second frequency band including at least a portion of the first frequency band,
identify a time interval allocated for transmission of data corresponding to the second communication network, based on the information related to the second communication network, and
control the electronic device to operate in a sleep state in the identified time interval,
wherein, when the first base station corresponding to a long term evolution (LTE) communication network does not transmit broadcast service data through predetermined subframes configured as multimedia broadcast multicast service single frequency network (MBSFN) subframes or does not transmit any data, dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) in a time division multiplexing scheme is applied through the predetermined subframes.
