In modern scenarios, there are several applications of OFDM, but it also has some demerits like sensitive to Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO), high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR), and timing offset large. Out Of Band (OOB) and low spectral efficiency due to cyclic prefix per symbol insertion. To diminish and discard above problems, new multiplexing technique is required for next generation wireless communication i.e. GFDM. GFDM is becoming popular day by day due to flexibility in pulse shape as well as single cyclic prefix in a multipath channel and which makes it eligible for the 5th generation technology. This paper deals with an overview of a GFDM and presents a comparative study between OFDM and GFDM.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
