Abstract

In the 5th generation mobile communication (5G) system, better bitrate, better power consumption, and better Bit Error Rate are needed. To meet all these requirements in 5G, the waveform is important. Although the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation scheme has been commonly used in 4G, it is difficult to meet the requirements of 5G. A lot of candidate waveforms are discussed in the 5G system included Filter Bank Multicarrier (FBMC), Universal Filtered Multicarrier (UFMC), Filtered OFDM (F-OFDM), and Generalized Frequency Division Multiplexing (GFDM), etc. However, since GFDM is no longer widely used, in this paper, FBMC, UFMC, and F-OFDM modulation schemes are discussed and compared with OFDM. Power Spectral Density (PSD), Bit Error Rate (BER), Transmitted Signal Power, Peak Average Power Ratio (PAPR) and Bit Rate parameters of the modulation schemes are studied and compared with OFDM. FBMC demonstrates to be the most promising modulation scheme for 5G systems.
