Abstract: Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) schemes are used extensively nowadays in large number of practical systems, but OFDM may not be the ideal solution for 5G scenarios because OFDM has high Out of band emission (OOBE) due to high spectral leakage and high peak to average power ratio (PAPR). Therefore Filtered OFDM (F-OFDM), which uses sub band filtering, is proposed as the most flexible waveform for 5G. However there is no work listed in the literature so far that compares the bit error rate (BER) performance of F-OFDM and conventional OFDM in AWGN, Rayleigh and Rician channel. This paper presents the simulation results on the BER performance of F-OFDM and OFDM in presence of AWGN, Rayleigh and Rician channel. The comparison is also done in terms of OOBE and PAPR factor. Results indicate that F-OFDM shows significantly less spectral leakage with same performance in terms of BER compared to conventional OFDM. However for the cases considered, OFDM performance is slightly better than F-OFDM in terms of PAPR factor.
