Provided is an apparatus and method for band allocation scheduling in a multi-band communication system. In the method, transmission (TX) signals are classified into at least one of a control signal, a broadcast signal and a signal requiring a short latency, and other user signal by considering the types of the TX signals. A band of a frequency lower than a reference frequency among the multiple bands is allocated to a signal classified as at least one of the control signal, the broadcast signal and the signal requiring a short latency. A band of a frequency higher than the reference frequency is allocated to a signal classified as the other user signal.
