1. A method performed by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from at least one user equipment (UE), first channel quality information for a first frequency band, wherein the first channel quality information includes at least one of a channel quality indicator (CQI), a pre-coding matrix index (PMI), or a rank index (RI);
obtaining a plurality of network parameters from the first channel quality information, the plurality of network parameters including a first parameter associated with the first frequency band, a second parameter associated with the UE and the BS, and a third parameter associated with an environmental condition;
applying the plurality of the network parameters to a trained machine learning (ML) model as input data; and
determining second channel quality information for a second frequency band different from the first frequency band based on output data from the trained ML model,
wherein the first parameter includes at least one of a subcarrier spacing or a bandwidth part (BWP) of the first frequency band, the second parameter includes at least one of a number of the at least one UE, an operation mode of the BS, or a transmitting power of the at least one UE, and the third parameter includes at least one of a climate condition or a time of a day.
