In this paper we investigate multiple access schemes and multi-carrier waveforms in the
context of future 5th Generation (5G) wireless communication systems. We compare …

This paper presents a study of the candidate waveforms for 5G when they are subject to
timing and carrier frequency offset. These waveforms are: orthogonal frequency division …

Current generation mobile communications require high-quality services. Adopting multiple
access (MA) and multi-carrier waveforms potentially enhances the quality of services offered …

Orthogonal frequency-division multiple access has been adopted by both the WiMAX and
Long Term Evolution standards, which are the two main contenders in the 4G wireless …

This paper investigates the potential of filter bank (FB) processing in the context of uplink
multi-user access. First, a FB based scheme, conceptually similar to the single carrier …

Future mobile radio systems must fulfill challenging requirements. Some requirements are
met by single-carrier-based multiple access (MA) schemes such as CDMA and others by …

The ideal radio waveform for an upcoming 5th Generation (5G) radio access technology
should cope with a set of requirements such as limited complexity, good time/frequency …

This paper presents an extensive and fair comparison among the most promising waveform
contenders for the 5G air interface. The considered waveform contenders, namely filter-bank …

The interleaved frequency division multiple access (IFDMA) scheme is based on
compression, repetition and subsequent user dependent frequency shift of a modulated …

One key advantage of 4G OFDM system is the relatively simple receiver implementation due
to the orthogonal resource allocation. However, from sum-capacity and spectral efficiency …
