Abstract
Fifth generation (5G) wireless systems are expected to combine emerging transmission technologies, such as large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) and non-orthogonal multi-carrier waveforms, to improve the spectral efficiency and to reduce out-of-band (OOB) emissions. This paper investigates the efficacy of two promising multi-carrier waveforms that reduce OOB emissions in combination with large-scale MIMO, namely filter bank multi-carrier (FBMC) and generalized frequency division multiplexing (GFDM). We develop novel, low-complexity data detection algorithms for both of these waveforms. We investigate the associated performance/complexity trade-offs in the context of large-scale MIMO, and we study the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). Our results show that reducing the OOB emissions with FBMC and GFDM leads to higher computational complexity and PAPR compared to that of…
