APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REPORTING CSI IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

The present disclosure relates to a 5G or a 6G communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4G communication system such as LTE. The present disclosure provides a method for an AI-based CSI report in a 5G or 6G communication system. The method performed by a base station in a wireless communication system include receiving capability information indicating whether the UE supports generation of AI-based CSI, receiving information on a change in inference time related to the AI-based CSI generation and information on a change in a channel state, based on the capability information, identifying information on a CSI report timing, based on the information on the change in the inference time and the change in the channel state, transmitting RRC configuration information including the CSI report timing, transmitting a CSI-RS, and receiving the CSI report based on the CSI-RS and the information on the CSI report timing.
