Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A signal transmission and reception method implemented by a terminal of a mobile communication system is provided. The terminal receives first information including a request for beam related information from a base station and transmits second information including the beam related information based on the first information to the base station. The terminal changes at least one of a Tx beam or a Rx beam associated with the base station, based on the first information and the second information.
