    Abstract: A method and device to modulate an FBMC/OQAM signal, the device comprising at least one QAM mapper mapping a binary stream into complex symbols, a first and a second transmission chain. Each chain comprises: a precoder transposing respective sets of symbols into frequency domain real/imaginary samples, a phase rotator applying a phase quadrature keying to said samples, an FBMC modulator to modulate the output of the phase rotator into an FBMC symbol. The device further comprises an adder of the output of the first transmission chain with a delayed output of the second transmission chain, and is configured to insert guard interval sequences into the binary stream or into the symbols processed by the precoders. A corresponding radio communication equipment, computer program and readable medium is provided.

    Abstract: An encoder architecture for UF-OFDM is provided, in which samples are first processed sub-band wise, and then resorted for sub-carrier-wise processing. The sub-carrier processing may comprise separate processing for the two extremity parts of the base band signal corresponding to the transient state of the UF-OFDM data stream and for a core part of the base band signal corresponding to the non-transient state of the UF-OFDM data stream, and then concatenated to obtain a UF-OFDM data stream. In certain embodiments a first extremity part of the base band signal corresponding to the transient state of the UF-OFDM data stream is calculated directly, and the other extremity part inferred from the core part and the first extremity part. The core and extremity part processors may be implemented with filters adapted to multiply each sample by a respective filter coefficient. Modifying these coefficients can introduce a frequency shift or convert the encoder for OFDM encoding.
