【 摘 要 】

Generalized Frequency Division Multiplexing (GFDM) is a non-orthogonal multicarrier transmission scheme proposed for fifth (5G) and future generation wireless networks. Due to its attractive properties, it has been recently discussed as a candidate waveform for the future wireless communication systems. GFDM is introduced as a generalized form of the widely used Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation scheme and it uses only one cyclic prefix (CP) for a group of symbols. The main focus of this work is to present like impact on the system performance the coefficient quantity of the subcarrier filter. A simple method for the computation of the coefficients of the prototype filter is employed. Besides, it is presented a structure for the GFDM by taking advantage of the arrangement in the modulation matrix. We evaluated the Bit Error Rate (BER) using the receiver models presented in this work. The results showed that the BER is affected according to the coefficients quantity of the prototype filter. Based on the obtained results, the coefficients quantity has a relation with the number of time slots of the GFDM system.
