The 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). A method for coding a channel in a communication system is provided. The method includes coding information to be transmitted with an outer code, generating an input sequence by allocating outer coded symbols sequentially from a sub-channel having a large capacity based on a polar code sequence, the input sequence having a value of 2n and n being a preset value, coding the input sequence with the polar code, interleaving the polar coded symbols of the polar coded input sequence according to a predetermined scheme in consideration of a modulation symbol, and modulating the interleaved polar coded symbols.
