A method of operating a first base station (BS) for performing wireless communication with a user equipment (UE), may include receiving a message including at least one piece of information associated with whether a coordinated multi-point (CoMP) operation is performed for a UE connected to the first BS from a second BS connected to the first BS, when the received message includes information indicating start of the CoMP operation, performing the CoMP operation at a timing indicated based on at least part of the at least one piece of information included in the received message, increasing a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) level during a first period, and maintaining the CoMP operation performed during a second period after the MCS level reaches a specified first level based on the increase during the first period, and when the received message includes information indicating termination of the CoMP operation, terminating the CoMP operation at a timing indicated based on at least part of the at least one piece of information included in the received message, and decreasing the MCS level during a third period.
