1. A method for providing network access to user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system via an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) configured with base station functionality, the method comprising:
receiving, by the UAV, from a network entity, a first message requesting UAV assistance information;
receiving, by the UAV, from one or more UEs, performance information related to a plurality of performance parameters;
detecting, by the UAV, in response to the first message, occurrence of a triggering of at least one event corresponding to an initiation of a UAV control operation, wherein the event includes a variation in data rate and a requirement of a specific service-based UAV;
transmitting, by the UAV, to the network entity, a second message including UAV assistance information comprising the performance information based on detecting the occurrence of the triggering, wherein the UAV assistance information include at least one of a transmission power, beamforming parameters or a requirement of UAV services;
receiving, by the UAV, from the network entity, a control message including information associated with the UAV control operation in response to the UAV assistance information included in the second message; and
executing, by the UAV, the UAV control operation using the information included in the received control message.
