Abstract

The present disclosure is related to a 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate than a 4th generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, a method for operating a base station in a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises: generating remaining minimum system information (RMSI) comprising random access channel (RACH) configuration, wherein the RACH configuration comprises an association between RACH resources and one of a synchronization signal (SS) block and channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) resources; and transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), the RMSI.
