Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-generation (4G) communication system such as a long term evolution (LTE). A method for selecting a radio frequency beam by a receiving apparatus in a wireless communication system supporting a beamforming scheme includes determining a number of reference signal intervals in which a reference signal is transmitted based on a number of transmitting apparatuses, estimating full channel information by repetitively performing a partial channel estimating based on the number of reference signal intervals, and selecting a reception RF beam and a transmission RF beam for each of the transmitting apparatuses based on the full channel information.
