Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a pre-5 th -Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4 th -Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). A method for communicating by a user equipment with a macro cell base station and a small cell base station in a communication system is provided. The method comprises applying a first base station security key to a first communication link with the macro cell base station; generating a second base station security key to be used for a second communication link with the small cell base station based on the first base station security key; applying the second base station security key to the second communication link with the small cell base station; and communicating through at least one of the first communication link and the second communication link.

Claim (Index 16):
A small base station communicating in a communication system, the small base station comprising:\n a transceiver; and a controller configured to:\n receive, from a macro base station, a second security key to be used for a second communication link with a user equipment (UE); \n apply the second security key to the second communication link with the UE; and wherein the second security key is generated based on a counter and a first security key to be used for a first communication link with the macro base station, and wherein the counter is included in a radio resource control (RRC) connection reconfiguration message.
