Abstract
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 long-term evolution (LTE), is disclosed. The system includes an apparatus of a base station. The apparatus may include: at least one transceiver, and at least one processor connected to the at least one transceiver, where the at least one processor is configured to transmit to a terminal, configuration information of reference signals for beam management regarding a transmit (Tx) beam of the BS or a receive (Rx) beam of the terminal, transmit the reference signals to the terminal, and the configuration information comprises information related to a number of repetitions of the reference signals.
