Although orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been standardized for 5G, filter bank multi-carrier (FBMC) and filtered orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (F-OFDM) remain competitive as candidates for future generations of wireless technologies beyond 5G, due to their reduced spectrum leakage and thus enhanced spectrum efficiency. In this article, we developed a unified spectrum expression for OFDM, FBMC, and F-OFDM, which provides comparative insights into those techniques. A representative sideband quantification is included at the end of this article.

Filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) is one of the effective candidates for the fifth generation of wireless communication networks. 5G (5th-generation wireless systems) is accepted as the next major stage of mobile telecommunication technology. The extent of 5G will be expanded mobile broadband services to next-generation automobiles and connected machines. In particular, filter bank multicarrier with offset quadrature amplitude modulation (FBMC/OQAM) is determined as the future generation 5G air interface by researchers recently. Filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) is admitted as one of the alternative technologies for multicarrier modulation. Compared to orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), FBMC has better spectrum shape and supports mobility. Therefore, efficient hardware implementations have highly interested researchers. Cyclic prefix (CP) and guard band are used for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and this causes loss of spectral efficiency, but FBMC applications do not need CP and guard band. Due to the fact that FBMC has offset QAM (OQAM) and band-limited filtering features on each subcarrier, the need for CP and guard band is eliminated. In this paper, novel pipelined hardware architecture of the filter design of FBMC/OQAM modulator has been proposed.

Combined with OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), satellite mobile communications will effectively achieve on-demand communication in areas with an ultra-low density of users. With OFDM multiple access optimization, the bandwidth utilization efficiency can be increased by 5 to 10 times. However, satellites are power-constrained systems, so higher PAPR requires greater power backoff, resulting in a decline in satellite transmission capacity. To use OFDM technology in satellites, there are problems such as reduced transmission capacity resulted from high PAPR, complication of lowering PAPR, and difficulty in hardware implementation. In order to deal with the problem of high bit error rate and hardware implementation difficulties in PAPR reduction technique of non-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, this paper proposes a limiting PAPR reduction technique with OFDM pilot filter banks for satellite mobile communications. Firstly, the applicability of OFDM in satellite mobile communications is analyzed, and the influence of high PAPR on satellite power utilization and the influence of frequency shift sensitivity on inter-satellite communication interference are obtained. Then design the PAPR reduction technique based on the pilot filter bank. By setting the tunable filter bank to the pilot, the sideband power suppression in the OFDM frequency domain is realized, and the PAPR of the OFDM signal is reduced. Finally, the experimental results show that the PAPR performance is improved by 3dB without reducing the bit error rate.

Abstract Recent advances in the communication systems culminated in a new class of multiple access schemes, named non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), where the main goal is to increase the spectrum efficiency by overlapping data from different users in a single time-frequency resource used by the physical layer. NOMA receivers can resolve the interference among data symbols from different users, increasing the overall system spectrum efficiency without introducing symbol error rate (SER) performance loss, which makes this class of multiple access techniques interesting for future mobile communication systems. This paper analyzes one promising NOMA technique, called sparse code multiple access (SCMA), where C users can share U<C time-frequency resources from the physical layer. Initially, the SCMA and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) integration is considered, defining a benchmark for the overall SER performance for the multiple access technique. Furthermore, this paper proposes the SCMA and generalized frequency division multiplexing (GFDM) integration. Since GFDM is a highly flexible non-orthogonal waveform that can mimic several other waveforms as corner cases, it is an interesting candidate for future wireless communication systems. This paper proposes two approaches for combining SCMA and GFDM. The first one combines a soft equalizer, called block expectation propagation (BEP), and a multi-user detection (MUD) scheme based on the sum-product algorithm (SPA). This approach achieves the best SER performance, but with the significant increment of the complexity at the receiver. In the second approach, BEP is integrated with a simplified MUD, which is an original contribution of this paper, aiming for reducing the receiver’s complexity at the cost of SER performance loss. The solutions proposed in this paper show that SCMA-GFDM can be an interesting solution for future mobile networks.

Recent advancements in communication systems have resulted in a new class of multiple access schemes known as non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), the primary goal of which is to increase spectrum efficiency by overlapping data from different users in a single time-frequency resource used by the physical layer. NOMA receivers can resolve interference between data symbols from various users, hence increasing throughput. Initially, the combination of SCMA and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is addressed, establishing a baseline for the overall SER performance of the multiple access strategy. Furthermore, this work suggests the merging of SCMA with generalised frequency division multiplexing (GFDM).GFDM is an intriguing possibility for future wireless communication systems since it is a very flexible non-orthogonal waveform that can imitate various different waveforms as corner cases. This research suggests two methods for integrating SCMA with GFDM.

Filter Bank Multi-Carrier (FBMC) modulation is one of the most significant enablers for future 5G technologies. It is a modulation technique for resolving inter-carrier and inter-symbol interference using two possible methods: Frequency Spreading (FS) and Poly Phase (PP) implementation. Cyclic prefixes are used in OFDM for signal robustness, but they have some disadvantages in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing. FBMC is used to solve the disadvantages of OFDM and save a bandwidth.  In this paper, performance comparisons in terms of symbol error rate between OFDM and FBMC systems in AWGN and multipath fading channels are presented. The obtained results show that FBMC over performs OFDM in multipath fading channels and the improvement margin is increased as the number of subcarriers decreased.
