1. A wearable device comprising:
wireless communication circuitry supporting a wireless communication function of the wearable device for wireless communication with an external electronic device;
a sensor including a light emitting unit;
a battery;
power receiving circuitry including a coil, the power receiving circuitry being configured to wirelessly receive power from a wireless charger based on at least one of electromagnetic induction or electromagnetic resonance;
memory storing instructions; and
a processor,
wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the wearable device to:
while the wearable device is positioned on the wireless charger for charging of the battery using the power wirelessly received through the power receiving circuitry, transmit, to the wireless charger using the light emitting unit, first infrared (IR) signals that are associated with information relating to a charging status of the wearable device, and
while the wearable device is positioned on the wireless charger for the charging of the battery using the power wirelessly received through the power receiving circuitry, transmit, to the wireless charger using the light emitting unit, second IR signals that are associated with information relating to a notification of the wearable device that is associated with a state of the wearable device related to the wireless communication function of the wearable device.
