Abstract

The disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. The disclosure provides method and apparatus for determining channel access procedure type for Msg3 transmission. The method includes receiving, from a base station, a random access response (RAR) including first information on a type of a channel access procedure for transmitting a msg3 of a random access procedure; performing the channel access procedure based on the first information; and transmitting, to the base station, the msg3 of the random access procedure based on a result of the channel access procedure.
