Résumé:
The forthcoming fifth generation of mobile technology
(5G) will be designed to satisfy the demands of 2020
and beyond. 5G does not just promise a huge increase in terms
of data rates and capacity but it also targets a new kind
of use cases like Internet of Things or vehicular communications.
The currently deployed 4G technology does not provide
enough network capabilities to support this wide diversity of
applications which has motivated the research on alternative
waveforms. In this article, a new promising modulation scheme
is introduced: Block-Filtered OFDM (BF-OFDM). The proposed
waveform demonstrates an excellent frequency localization and
can straightforwardly be integrated with the OFDM know-how
and LTE principles. Besides, the proposed waveform relies on a
receiver similar to the one used in CP-OFDM. BF-OFDM systems
are also scalable, which is an interesting feature in order to steer
the network capabilities on demand.
