1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving one or more downlink signals associated with one or more beams on a cell;
obtaining a measurement result for the cell based on the one or more downlink signals; and
performing a cell selection or a cell reselection based on the measurement result for the cell;
wherein the measurement result for the cell comprises:
a result of a layer-3 filtering for a cell quality of the cell, and
information indicating the number of one or more available beams, each of the one or more available beams providing a signal quality higher than a threshold,
wherein the cell quality is obtained based on an average of signal qualities of downlink signals among the one or more downlink signals, and
wherein each of the signal qualities is higher than the threshold.
