5G Challenges and Solutions
New Waveforms
– Performance of f-OFMD, FBMC, UFMC, etc.
Massive MIMO and mmWave
– Antenna arrays, Beamforming and RF architectures
Channel Model
– WINNER II model and 3GPP
Advanced Receivers Design
– LDPC and Turbo
Real Hardware Verification and Prototyping
– Hardware testbed and Quick prototyping on FPGA
LTE and WLAN Evolution

Example: New Waveforms Evaluation:
- Universal Filtered Multi-carrier (UFMC)
Filtering applied per sub-bands (not per sub-carrier as in FBMC)
– Filtering parameterized by side-lobe attenuation
– Reduced filter length (compared to FBMC)
– Good for short bursts, suited for uplink with multiple users
Receiver complexity
– Similar to OFDM, use per subcarrier equalization

Why Consider RF in 5G System-Level Simulation?
RF imperfections that cannot be neglected, especially in 5G with higher frequency
There will be a need for greater integration between RF and baseband
