Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure relates to a communication technique for combining a 5G communication system that supports higher data transmission rates after 4G systems with IoT technology and to the system therefor. The present disclosure can be applied for intelligent services based on 5G communication technology and IoT related technology (for example, smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smart cars or connected cars, healthcare, digital education, retail businesses, security and safety related services, and the like). According to the present disclosure, a method for charging by a base station in a wireless communication system comprises, upon sensing use of a resource by a device performing machine-to-machine (M2M) communication using a resource allocated to the wireless communication system based on a charging reference, gathering charging-related information about the sensed use of the resource and transmitting the charging-related information or charging information to a higher entity.
