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 Long Term Evolution (LTE). A method for beamforming in a wireless device includes determining a beam based on a user gesture and communicating with another wireless device using the determined beam, and thus the time required to set a beam direction can be reduced and a load for beamforming can be reduced.
