Abstract: 

Generalized frequency division multiplexing (GFDM) is one promising modulation scheme featuring low out-of-band (OOB) radiation for future wireless communication systems. However, GFDM systems are usually considered non-orthogonal, incurring in-band performance degradation in receiver mean square error (MSE) and symbol error rate (SER) compared to the counterparts of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). In addition, the implementation complexity of GFDM transceivers is also one of the important issues that prevent GFDM from being widely adopted. 

 

GFDM modulation is characterized by a prototype filter, usually expressed in time-domain or in frequency-domain in the literature. In this talk, we first introduce a new characterization that provides straightforward insights into important properties of GFDM matrices including invertibility and unitarity. The new characterization also leads to low-complexity transceiver implementation which is at the same order of OFDM transceivers. Then, it will be shown that if a unitary GFDM matrix is chosen as the modulation matrix, the noise amplification problem usually mentioned in the GFDM literature will vanish, and a low-complexity MMSE receiver is found to exist. The GFDM prototype filter, under the constraint of a unitary GFDM matrix, can be further designed to minimize out-of-band emission. Simulation results are given to verify the theory and important insights will be addressed in the presentation.
