Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a pre-5-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). According to embodiments, a method performed by a distributed unit (DU), the method comprises generating a control plane (C-plane) message for multiple ports, the C-plane message including section information and a section extension; and transmitting the C-plane message to a radio unit (RU) via a specific port of the multiple ports. The section information includes information on a beam identifier (ID). The section extension includes beam group type information for indicating a type of beam grouping, and port information for indicating a total number of one or more extended antenna-carrier (eAxC) ports indicated by the section extension.
