1. An electronic device comprising:
a wireless communication circuit including a plurality of radio frequency (RF) modules;
a memory configured to store a plurality of reference values for classifying a plurality of areas within a cell to which the electronic device belongs; and
at least one processor,
wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
determine, based on at least one of a first broadcasting signal received from a base station in the cell and the plurality of reference values stored in the memory, at least one RF module among the plurality of RF modules to monitor a second broadcasting signal transmitted from the base station and a period of the monitoring, and
perform the monitoring by using the determined at least one RF module according to the determined period.
