Original Abstract Submitted
an electronic device includes memory storing instructions, a radar configured to transmit an electromagnetic signal and receive a radar signal which is a reflected signal of the electromagnetic signal, the reflected signal being reflected from at least one target object, a touch pad configured to detect a touch of a user based on a designated touch threshold value, and at least one processor operatively coupled with the memory, the radar, and the touch pad. the instructions may, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to: obtain the radar signal received by the radar; identify, based on the radar signal, a surrounding environment of the electronic device, and adjust the touch threshold value based on the surrounding environment.
