A method for receiving a signal by integer forcing in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving one or more signals through a plurality of antennas, filtering the received one or more signals using a forcing matrix, generating codewords by remapping the filtered one or more signals, acquiring a summed codeword by performing a modulo operation on the codewords, decoding the summed codeword, and acquiring original codewords by performing an inversion operation on the decoded summed codeword.
