1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message including configuration information associated with other configurations;
identifying that the terminal is configured to provide overheating assistance information based on the configuration information; and
in case that overheating is detected and a prohibit timer for reporting the overheating assistance information is not running, starting the prohibit timer and transmitting, to the base station, the overheating assistance information including first information indicating a terminal's preference on a reduce configuration,
wherein the reduce configuration includes information on a maximum aggregated bandwidth across carriers of at least one of a first frequency range or a second frequency range, a highest frequency of the first frequency range being lower than a lowest frequency of the second frequency range, and
wherein the information on the maximum aggregated bandwidth indicates at least one value, and a value of 0 is not used for the first frequency range.
