Abstract

FBMC has been taken as a candidate waveform for the next enhanced 5th generation (5G). To further improve its advantages over OFDM as well as to promote its application in burst transmission, a two-phase method is applied to design its prototype filter, i.e. a square-root Nyquist filter. In this method, the autocorrelation-based technique and a spectral factorization aimed at minimum stopband energy are successively exploited to acquire the final prototype filter. Through the relaxation of Nyquist condition and benefited from the nonlinear-phase, the frequency selectivity of our designed filters can be greatly improved. Furthermore, the performances of the proposed prototype filter brings a better BER in simulations, which demonstrates the effectiveness of our square-root Nyquist filter design for FBMC systems.
