Abstract

A method and a device are configured for uplink communication in a non-terrestrial network. The method of operating a base station includes steps performed by a processor of the base station, including: predicting a first length of a feeder link between the base station and a satellite connected to the base station; predicting a second length of a service link between the satellite and a terminal connected to the satellite; predicting a first communication quality for the feeder link by considering the first length; predicting a second communication quality for the service link by considering the second length; generating scheduling information on the basis of the first communication quality and the second communication quality; transmitting the scheduling information to the terminal via the satellite; and performing uplink communication with the terminal on the basis of the scheduling information.
