Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting higher data transmission rates than 4G communication systems such as LTE. In a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention, an operation method of a serving base station for mutual authentication in an access stratum (AS) section during handover comprises the steps of: receiving a measurement report from a terminal; confirming whether the terminal meets handover conditions on the basis of the measurement report; if the terminal meets the handover conditions, confirming whether a target base station, to which the terminal is to be connected during handover, belongs to the same authentication area (AA) as the serving base station; and transmitting, to the terminal, a handover command that is configured differently according to whether the target base station and the serving base station belong to the same AA.
