1. A method performed by a terminal in a communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configuration and a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) configuration, the PUCCH configuration including information on a number of slots and information on a length of a subslot;
receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) including resource allocation information;
receiving, from the base station, data based on the PDSCH configuration and the resource allocation information; and
performing repetition of PUCCH transmission for the data over N slots including a number of symbols indicated by the length of the subslot based on the PUCCH configuration, wherein N indicates the number of slots,
wherein the repetition of the PUCCH transmission is performed based on alternating between multiple transmission and reception points (TRPs) per L repetitions of the PUCCH transmission, and
wherein an offset between the repetition of the PUCCH transmission is identified based on the PUCCH configuration.
