1. A method of outputting to a terminal a synchronization signal by a communication node, the method comprising:
receiving communication connection information from the terminal, the communication connection information comprising position information of a synchronization signal (SS) block for the terminal;
identifying the position information of the SS block included in the communication connection information;
setting a position of the SS block for the terminal based on the identified position information; and
outputting the SS block based on the set position,
wherein the setting of the position of the SS block for the terminal comprises, when a plurality of frequency bands for the SS block corresponding to the position information are identified, selecting a frequency band based on whether each of the plurality of frequency bands is occupied by another terminal.
