Numerical characterization for optimal designed waveform to multicarrier systems in 5G [pdf]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
High mobility of terminals constitutes a hot topic that is commonly envisaged for the next Fifth Generation (5G) of mobile communication systems. The wireless propagation channel is a time-frequency variant. This aspect can dramatically damage the waveforms orthogonality that is induced in the Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal. Consequently, this results in oppressive Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI) and Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI), which leads to performance degradation in OFDM systems. To efficiently overcome these drawbacks, we developed in [1] an adequate algorithm that maximizes the received Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) by optimizing systematically the OFDM waveforms at the Transmitter (TX) and Receiver (RX) sides. In this paper, we go further by investigating the performance evaluation of this algorithm. We start by testing its robustness against time and frequency synchronization errors. Then, as this algorithm banks on an iterative approach to find the optimal waveforms, we study the impact of the waveform initialization on its convergence. The obtained simulation results confirm the efficiency of this algorithm and its robustness compared to the conventional OFDM schemes, which makes it an appropriate good candidate for 5G systems.
