A low complexity design for demodulating GFDM signals based on a sparse representation of the pulse-shaping filter in frequency domain and the results show, that for high-order QAM signaling, the error performance can be significantly improved with interference cancellation at reasonable computational cost.
Abstract
Generalized frequency division multiplexing (GFDM) is a multi-carrier modulation scheme. In contrast to the traditional orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), it can benefit from transmitting multiple symbols per sub-carrier. GFDM targets block based transmission which is enabled by circular pulse shaping of the individual sub- carriers. In this paper we propose a low complexity design for demodulating GFDM signals based on a sparse representation of the pulse-shaping filter in frequency domain. The proposed scheme is compared to receiver concepts from previous work and the performance is assessed in terms of bit error rates for AWGN and Rayleigh multipath fading channels. The results show, that for high-order QAM signaling, the error performance can be significantly improved with interference cancellation at reasonable computational cost.
