The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). According to the present application, a method for transmitting control signaling in a relay network comprises: a second relay node acquires a first control signaling and a second control signaling, wherein the first control signaling contains an F1AP message; the second relay node processes the first control signaling and the second control signaling in the same manner or different manners; and the second relay node transmits the first control signaling and the second control signaling to a first relay node.
