Abstract: A system and method of generating a control message of a digital unit (DU) of a base station in a wireless communication system supporting lower layer function division, and a system and method of processing a control message of a radio unit (RU) of the base station are provided. The system and method provide an RU of the base station that does not need to analyze the subframe structure in association with other control plane sections, such that processing time and processing complexity can be reduced.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a pre 5th generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). A method for operating a radio unit (RU) of a base station is provided. The method includes transmitting, to a digital unit (DU), a first message comprising a value indicating the maximum number of masks for one resource area, and receiving, from the DU, a second message generated based on the value, wherein the mask may indicate resources to which the same beam is applied within the resource area.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-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.
