Description:

Efficient consumption of available resources and fulfillment of increasing demands are the two main challenges which are addressed by exploring advanced multiple access schemes along with efficient modulation techniques. To this end, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is discussed as a promising scheme for future 5G traffic. NOMA enables the users to share same resource block, permitting certain level of interference. In this paper, we propose filtered OFDM (F-OFDM) as a transmission waveform for NOMA systems, as it offers all the advantages of OFDM with the additional provision of sub-band filtering to satisfy the diverse services of the users. We examine F-OFDM in both downlink and uplink NOMA systems. Error-related performances of both downlink and uplink F-OFDM NOMA systems are analyzed and compared with conventional OFDM NOMA system over Nakagami-m fading channel. The results show that the error performance of F-OFDM NOMA is better than that of OFDM NOMA. An improvement of about 2 dB and 1 dB in bit error rate is achieved in downlink and uplink F-OFDM NOMA, respectively. Monte Carlo simulations are conducted for different values of fading parameter m, supporting the obtained analytical results
