The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4-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. A method and an apparatus for determining an azimuth for transmission by a base station based on information received from a terminal are provided. The method includes receiving per-terminal location information and per-terminal received signal strength information from a plurality of terminal, sampling terminals located in coverage of the base station based on the per-terminal location information and per-terminal received signal strength information, and determining the azimuth for transmission by the base station based on a result of the sampling.
