Abstract:
Systems and methods for providing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing-offset quadrature amplitude modulation (OFDM-OQAM) structure may be disclosed. For example, a synthesis filter bank (SFB) and/or an analysis filter bank (AFB) for a filter length may be derived. The filter length may be odd. Additionally, the AFB may be an inverse discrete Fourier transform (IDFT)-based AFB and/or a discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-based AFB.
Abstract:
A resource block (RB)-based multicarrier modulation (MCM) transmitter and receiver structure for spectral agile systems are disclosed. The transmitter and the receiver are capable of sharing opportunistically available and non-contiguous channels with other users. The RB-MCM partitions the available spectrum, contiguous or non-contiguous, into multiple RBs (same or different sizes), applies a baseband MCM or single carrier modulation, or coded single carrier or multicarrier schemes in each RB with a type of spectral leakage reduction technique, and applies RB modulation for each RB to modulate the signal from baseband to the frequency band of that RB. At the receiver, the received signal may be filtered and RB demodulation may be applied to put each RB signal in baseband and a baseband multicarrier or single carrier or coded single carrier or coded multicarrier demodulation may be applied to each RB signal. Different RBs may use different modulation schemes.
Abstract:
Embodiments contemplate TDD systems and techniques where timeslots may be allocated as DL, UL, or FDSC; the base station (BS) may be full duplex singled channel (FDSC) capable; and some, all, or none of the UEs (or WTRUs) may be FDSC capable. In one or more embodiments, FDSC1 timeslots may be contemplated that may be used (in some embodiments perhaps exclusively used) by a pair of radios, for example one BS and one UE, both having FD capability. In one or more embodiments, FDSC timeslots may be shared among a BS with FDSC capability and two or more UEs, that may be half duplex (HD). Embodiments also contemplate various FDD systems and techniques, including full duplex FDD systems and techniques.

Abstract:
The disclosure pertains to methods and apparatus for Faster than Nyquist (FTN) modulation schemes to increase throughput in multicarrier communication systems and wherein the latency problem inherent in filter bank multicarrier systems (FBMC) is reduced or eliminated by using non-orthogonal waveforms (i.e., faster than Nyquist modulation) in only part(s) of the subframe or packet and orthogonal waveforms in other part(s). The number and spacing between FTN pulses may be selected such that the last sample of the last pulse is received within the time slot allocated to the subframe/packet, thereby eliminating added latency. The FTN modulation scheme may be employed both temporally and in frequency (e.g., the frequency spacing of the channels may be tighter than the Nyquist frequency spacing condition. FTN signaling also may be used as a method to control/coordinate interference between different nodes. For instance, if a node uses FTN, more pulses may be packed into a given period in the time domain and/or more channels may be packed into a given bandwidth in the frequency domain, hence some parts of the band may be vacated for use by others, use by the same node for additional channels, or used with reduced power. The interference control/coordination may be extended to time and frequency. Such FTN schemes may be used with different types of multicarrier systems.
