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.

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.

Generalized frequency division multiplexing (GFDM) is a waveform for the next-generation communication systems to succeed in the drawbacks of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). The symbols of users are transmitted with the time- and frequency-shifted versions of a prototype filter. According to filtering operation, the computational complexity and processing load are high for the devices that suffer from energy consumption. The communication systems are required to support the new generation devices that need low energy consumption and low latency issues. Motivated by such demands of the next-generation communication system, we propose a novel GFDM waveform that we call hexagonal GFDM. The contributions of the hexagonal GFDM are that it: (i) supports short transmission time based on its hexagonal time–frequency allocations; and (ii) provides low latency communication with low computational complexity manner. Furthermore, we design a transmitter and receiver structure in a less complicated way with mathematical derivation by using polyphase decomposition and Fourier transform (FT) transformation. The proposed systems are realized analytically and investigated over Rayleigh fading channel model through computer simulations.

In this study, filtered orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (F-OFDM) and universal filtered multicarrier (UFMC) were proposed for complexity reduction in the 5G waveform. Cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CP_OFDM) is well suited for 4G; however, the major problem of the 4G modulation methods is their susceptibility to high peak to average power ratio (PAPR). Another problem of OFDM is the issue of sideband leakage. The existing 4G systems mainly depend on the CP_OFDM waveform, which cannot support the host of applications provided by the 5G platform. 5G-generated traffic is likely to exhibit different features and requirements compared to the existing wireless technology. Consequently, investigations have been devoted to other multiple access schemes. The existing limitations of OFDM can be mitigated by using the UFMC technique. To ensure that the demands and requirements of the upcoming 5G cellular networks are satisfied, this study presents an enabler called filtered-OFDM (f-OFDM) for flexible waveform configurations. Contrarily, the assigned bandwidth in the f-OFDM is split into various sub-bands to accommodate different services in each sub-band using the most suited waveform, thereby enhancing the spectrum utilization using a different filter. Additionally, the advantages of F-OFDM and UFMC were portrayed via a wide comparison with the current 5G waveforms.

This paper describes the aspects of multiple access for emerging (5G) Wireless Communication Systems. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is best suited for fourth generation (4G) but it suffers from the problem of high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) & Side band leakage. Single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) has worked like an alternative to OFDMA only in the uplink process and PAPR was reduced. OFDM based 4G network is not capable of supporting diverse applications and these applications can be implemented by 5G.  High traffic requirements of 5G can be evaluated by using multiple access schemes, namely filter-bank multi-carrier (FBMC), universal-filtered multi-carrier (UFMC), generalized frequency-division multiplexing (GFDM). Comparison of PAPR reduction is done based on Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF), for various multiple access 5G waveforms.

Complex Approach

Neural networks and their application in communication systems are receiving growing attention from both academia and industry. The authors note that there is a disconnect between the typical objective functions of these neural networks with regards to the context in which the neural network will eventually be deployed and evaluated. To this end, a new loss function is proposed and shown to increase the performance of neural networks when implemented in a communication system compared to previous methods. It is further shown that a ‘split complex’ approach used by many implementations can be improved via formalisation of the ‘concatenated complex’ approach described herein. Experimental results using the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and spectrally efficient frequency division multiplexing (SEFDM) modulation formats with varying bandwidth compression factors over a wireless visible light communication (VLC) link validate the efficacy of the proposed method in a real system, achieving the lowest error vector magnitude (EVM), and thus bit error rate (BER), across all experiments, with a 5 dB to 10 dB improvement in the received symbols EVM overall compared to the baseline implementation, with bandwidth compressions down to 40% compared to OFDM, resulting in a spectral efficiency gain of 67%.

<p>Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a transmission system that uses multiple orthogonal carriers that are sent out at the same time. OFDM is a technique for mobile and wireless communication that has high-efficient frequency utilization, high data-rate transmission, simple and efficient implementation using the fast Fourier transform (FFT) and the inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT), and reduces inter symbol interference (ISI) by inserting cyclic prefix (CP). One of the most important approaches in an OFDM system is channel estimation. In this paper, the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system with the Rayleigh channel module is analyzed for different areas. The proposed approach used large numbers of subcarriers to transmit the signals over 64-QAM modulation with pilot add channel estimation. The accuracy of the OFDM system is shown in the measuring of the relationships of peak power to the noise ratio and bit error rate.</p>
