Waveform Design for 5G and Beyond
5G is envisioned to improve major key performance indicators (KPIs), such as
peak data rate, spectral efficiency, power consumption, complexity, connection
density, latency, and mobility. This chapter aims to provide a complete picture
of the ongoing 5G waveform discussions and overviews the major candidates. It
provides a brief description of the waveform and reveals the 5G use cases and
waveform design requirements. The chapter presents the main features of cyclic
prefix-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) that is deployed in
4G LTE systems. CP-OFDM is the baseline of the 5G waveform discussions since
the performance of a new waveform is usually compared with it. The chapter
examines the essential characteristics of the major waveform candidates along
with the related advantages and disadvantages. It summarizes and compares the
key features of different waveforms.Comment: 22 pages, 21 figures, 2 tables; accepted version (The URL for the

Frequency-Selective PAPR Reduction for OFDM
We study the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) problem in orthogonal
frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. In conventional clipping and
filtering based PAPR reduction techniques, clipping noise is allowed to spread
over the whole active passband, thus degrading the transmit signal quality
similarly at all active subcarriers. However, since modern radio networks
support frequency-multiplexing of users and services with highly different
quality-of-service expectations, clipping noise from PAPR reduction should be
distributed unequally over the corresponding physical resource blocks (PRBs).
To facilitate this, we present an efficient PAPR reduction technique, where
clipping noise can be flexibly controlled and filtered inside the transmitter
passband, allowing to control the transmitted signal quality per PRB. Numerical
results are provided in 5G New Radio (NR) mobile network context, demonstrating
the flexibility and efficiency of the proposed method.Comment: Accepted for publication as a Correspondence in the IEEE Transactions
