Abstract
Filterbank multicarrier (FBMC) is an effective method for modulation over massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels in the future fifth generation wireless networks. This multicarrier technique provides high spectral efficiency, and it is resilient against synchronization errors compared to the well-known orthogonal frequency division multiplexing technique. This paper introduces a new technique, that combines the Code-division multiple-access (CDMA) and cosine modulated filter banks, a specific class of FBMC, to massive MIMO communication systems. In the proposed technique, the data symbols are transmitted on different sub-bands and also, they are spread in each sub-band by CDMA code. The proposed technique reduces the interference between data symbols, which consequently improves bit-error-rate (BER) performance. Simulation results show that the overall BER performance of the proposed multicarrier transmission technique is significantly enhanced. The results obtained show that as the number of base station antennas increases, different channel distortions are averaged out, thus BER decreases (in average by 10–2) for the same signal-to-noise ratio.
