1. A method performed by a terminal for a 2-step random access procedure in a wireless communication, the method comprising:
identifying whether physical random access channel (PRACH) occasions for a 4-step random access type is shared with a 2-step random access type; and
based on identifying that the PRACH occasions for the 4-step random access type is shared with the 2-step random access type, transmitting, to a base station, a message A including a preamble based on a first configuration of PRACH occasions,
wherein the first configuration of PRACH occasions is common for the 4-step random access type and the 2-step random access type, and
wherein, based on identifying that the PRACH occasions for the 4-step random access type is shared with the 2-step random access type, a preamble index of the preamble associated with a synchronization signal block (SSB) starts from an index which is determined based on a starting preamble index of preambles allocated for the 4-step random access type associated with the SSB and a total number of preambles for the 4-step random access type.
