Abstract

Faster-Than-Nyquist (FTN) is a technique that can improve the spectral efficiency of communication systems by making better use of available spectrum resources at the cost of inter-symbol interference (ISI) and inter-carrier interference (ICI). In this paper, we propose a hybrid signaling scheme for a practical application of FTN for MIMO transmission. We propose a new slot structure optimized for the hybrid signaling supporting both FTN signaling and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signaling. Specifically, in the proposed slot structure, data transmission is based on the FTN signaling and the pilot transmission is based on the OFDM signaling. Numerical results confirm that the proposed signaling scheme has clear benefit over the systems employing only OFDM or FTN signaling.
