An electronic device includes a processor configured to: receive a Radio Frequency (RF) signal of a designated frequency band from an external electronic device by using at least two antennas among the multiple antennas; acquire first angle-of-arrival data of the RF signal, based on at least a part of the RF signal; determine a posture of the electronic device based on tilt information of the electronic device provided from a sensor module; based on the electronic device that is determined to be tilted in the first direction or the second direction; identify a compensation value corresponding to tilt information of the electronic device; acquire second angle-of-arrival data by applying the compensation value to the first angle-of-arrival data; and determine a location of the external electronic device based on the second angle-of-arrival data.
