A method for signal transmission includes determining whether to perform repeated transmissions for a time length of a multiplication of L and M or more, wherein L indicates the overlapping factor of the system and M indicates a number of quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) filter bank multi-carrier (FBMC) symbols, determining information on a type of the repeated transmissions to be performed, and transmitting FBMC symbols using a transmit power determined based on the type of the repeated transmissions. A base station includes a transceiver unit to send and receive signals, a control unit configured to determine whether to perform repeated transmissions for a time length of a multiplication of L and M or more, determine information on a type of the repeated transmissions to be performed, and transmit FBMC symbols using a transmit power determined based on the type of the repeated transmissions.
