Abstract
The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. The disclosure relates to an operation of a RedCap UE and a base station in a wireless communication system. More specifically, the disclosure relates to an operation method of a RedCap UE considering a switching gap and an apparatus for performing the same. A method performed by a terminal in a communication system includes receiving, from a base station, information indicating positions of SS/PBCH blocks, identifying the positions of the SS/PBCH blocks based on the information, receiving, from the base station, configuration information on PUSCH repetition, identifying available resources for the PUSCH repetition by determining resources overlapped with the positions of the SS/PBCH blocks and switching intervals for the SS/PBCH blocks as unavailable resources for the PUSCH repetition, and repeatedly transmitting, to the base station, UL data on a PUSCH based on the available resources.
