Abstract
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. The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for performing a random access by a terminal in a wireless communication system by starting a backoff timer for a random access preamble retransmission, determining whether a criterion to select a contention free random access resource is met during the backoff timer, selecting a random access resource for a transmission of a random access preamble when the criterion is met during the backoff timer, and transmitting, to a base station, the random access preamble in the selected random access resource.
