Abstract

Disclosed is a 5G or pre-5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G communication system such as LTE. A communication method of a terminal in a wireless communication system, which includes a first base station supporting first wireless communication and a second base station supporting second wireless communication, can comprise the steps of: performing data communication though the first wireless communication with the first base station; receiving, from the first or second base station, configuration information for second wireless communication connection; reporting, to the first or second base station, the result of measurement on at least one beamforming reference signal having been received from the second base station, on the basis of the configuration information; and establishing the second wireless communication connection with the second base station on the basis of the measurement result.

Claims (49)

1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a first base station, a first message requesting a capability of the terminal for a radio access technology type, the radio access technology type includes new radio (NR), and a dual connectivity of evolved universal terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) and the NR; and

transmitting, to the first base station, a second message including first information on the capability of the terminal for the NR and second information on the capability of the terminal for the dual connectivity,

wherein the second message further includes first band combinations that the terminal supports for the NR and second band combinations that the terminal supports for the dual connectivity.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the first base station, a third message configuring a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a second base station; and

communicating with the second base station based on the third message,

wherein the first base station is a master base station of the dual connectivity and the second base station is a secondary base station of the dual connectivity.

3. The method of claim 2 ,

wherein the first base station supports the E-UTRA, and

wherein the second base station supports the NR.

4. A method performed by a first base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a terminal, a first message requesting a capability of the terminal for a radio access technology type, the radio access technology type includes new radio (NR), and a dual connectivity of evolved universal terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA); and

receiving, from the terminal, a second message including first information on the capability of the terminal for the NR and second information on the capability of the terminal for the dual connectivity,

wherein the second message further includes first band combinations that the terminal supports for the NR and second band combinations that the terminal supports for the dual connectivity.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

transmitting, to the terminal, a third message configuring a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a second base station,

wherein the terminal is connected with the second base station based on the third message, and

wherein the first base station which is a master base station of the dual connectivity and the second base station is a secondary base station of the dual connectivity.

6. The method of claim 5 ,

wherein the first base station supports the E-UTRA, and

wherein the second base station supports the NR.

7. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transceiver; and

at least one processor configured to:

control the transceiver to receive, from a first base station, a first message requesting a capability of the terminal for a radio access technology type, the radio access technology type includes new radio (NR), and a dual connectivity of evolved universal terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) and the NR, and

control the transceiver to transmit, to the first base station, a second message including first information on the capability of the terminal for the NR and second information on the capability of the terminal for the dual connectivity,

wherein the second message further includes first band combinations that the terminal supports for the NR and second band combinations that the terminal supports for the dual connectivity.

8. The terminal of claim 7 ,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

control the transceiver to receive, from the first base station, a third message configuring a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a second base station, and

communicate with the second base station based on the third message, and

wherein the first base station is a master base station of the dual connectivity and the second base station is a secondary base station of the dual connectivity.

9. The terminal of claim 8 ,

wherein the first base station supports the E-UTRA, and

wherein the second base station supports the NR.

10. A first base station in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:

a transceiver; and

at least one processor configured to:

control the transceiver to transmit, to a terminal, a first message requesting a capability of the terminal for a radio access technology type, the radio access technology type includes new radio (NR), and a dual connectivity of evolved universal terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) and the NR, and

control the transceiver to receive, from the terminal, a second message including first information on the capability of the terminal for the NR and second information on the capability of the terminal for the dual connectivity,

wherein the second message further includes first band combinations that the terminal supports for the NR and second band combinations that the terminal supports for the dual connectivity.

11. The base station of claim 10 ,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the transceiver to transmit, to the terminal, a third message configuring a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a second base station,

wherein the terminal is connected with the second base station based on the third message, and

wherein the first base station which is a master base station of the dual connectivity and the second base station is a secondary base station of the dual connectivity.

12. The base station of claim 11 ,

wherein the first base station supports the E-UTRA, and

wherein the second base station supports the NR.
