1. A method performed by a network exposure function (NEF) entity in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from an application function (AF) entity, a first message associated with a generation of a quality of service (QOS), wherein the first message includes information on a set of user equipments (UEs) and the information includes an address list of the UEs and a threshold associated with QoS monitoring;
transmitting, to each of a plurality of policy control function (PCF) entities, a second message for a QoS monitoring report for a UE address included in the address list;
receiving, from a user plane function (UPF) entity, a QoS monitoring event in response to the second message; and
transmitting, to the AF entity, a third message including QoS monitoring reports for the set of the UEs, in case that an aggregated data rate for the set of the UEs exceeds the threshold.
