Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a 5G or pre-5G communication system to be provided to support a higher data transmission rate after a 4G communication system such as LTE. An embodiment of the present specification relates to beamforming in a mobile communication system and comprises a step for configuring an operation of a limiter circuit for adjusting amplitude of a signal received by a receiver, and receiving the signal according the configuration. According to various embodiments of the present specification, a limiter circuit employed in a receiver supporting beamforming can prevent a reception circuit from being damaged. Further, when reception antenna gain is low or a high signal-to-noise ratio is required, a received signal is not allowed to pass through the limiter circuit so that the received signal can be prevented from deteriorating.
