Faster-Than-Nyquist Signaling

Anderson, John B LU ; Rusek, Fredrik LU and Öwall, Viktor LU (2013) In Proceedings of the IEEE 101(8). p.1817-1830
Abstract
In this paper, we survey Faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signaling, an extension of ordinary linear modulation in which the usual data bearing pulses are simply sent faster, and consequently are no longer orthogonal. Far from a disadvantage, this innovation can transmit up to twice the bits as ordinary modulation at the same bit energy, spectrum, and error rate. The method is directly applicable to orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) and quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signaling. Performance results for a number of practical systems are presented. FTN signaling raises a number of basic issues in communication theory and practice. The Shannon capacity of the signals is considerably higher.
