Abstract
Provided is a beam transmission/reception method, which is executed in a wireless communication system in which a terminal and a base station are configured to use a beam to communicate to and from each other. The beam transmission/reception method includes a first step of setting, by the base station, when receiving a random access signal transmitted by the terminal as a connection request, a beam direction group at a time of reception of the random access signal by adding a further outer beam direction to beam directions used at a time of transmission of a notification signal for measuring a signal before the reception.
