    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an electronic device and a method for operating same, which can divide a recognition section for voice recognition, process different types of voice recognition corresponding to the divided recognition sections, and improve a voice recognition rate. According to an embodiment, a method for recognizing a voice by an electronic device may include: detecting a voice input; determining the direction of the voice and a beamforming direction. Voice recognition is based on the voice when the direction of the voice and the beamforming direction correspond to each other. Different types of voice recognition may be performed for voices input in a first section and a second section, based on divided types of voice input sections, when the direction of the voice and the beamforming direction do not correspond to each other.

    Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication circuit, a speaker, a microphone, a memory, and a processor. The processor is configured to determine whether there is auditory data stored in the memory of the electronic device when an external electronic device is connected thereto through the communication circuit, send a request for auditory data to the external electronic device when there is no auditory data stored in the memory, receive the auditory data from the external electronic device, correct data, at the electronic device, about the sound received through the microphone using the auditory data, receive corrected audio data from the external electronic device, synthesize the corrected data about the sound and the corrected audio data received from the external device to obtain first synthesized data, and output a first new sound corresponding to the first synthesized data through the speaker.

    Abstract: An electronic device and a sound signal processing method for improving sound perception of a hearing-impaired user are provided. The electronic device of the present disclosure includes a sound input unit comprising sound input circuitry configured to detect a sound and to convert the sound into a first sound signal and a processor which is electrically connected to the sound input unit, the processor configured to receive the first sound signal and to perform a predetermined signal processing on the first sound signal to generate a second sound signal, wherein the signal processing includes detecting a frequency band with a level equal to or greater than a predetermined value in a first frequency band above a predetermined cutoff frequency of the first sound signal, generating harmonic signals including a plurality of frequency bins that are identical in level with a signal in the detected frequency band, and overlapping the harmonic signals with the first sound signal.
