Abstract

In recent years, mobile communication technology has gradually entered the 6G era. The newly defined application scenarios pose a huge challenge to the physical layer air interface waveform, requiring it to have flexibility and adaptability to meet the needs of various businesses. Unfortunately, traditional OFDM waveform technology itself has a series of defects such as sensitivity to fast time-varying channels and poor out-of-band suppression performance, which can no longer meet the various requirements in current 6G communications. Therefore, proposing new air interface waveform technologies to compensate for the shortcomings of OFDM and meet various requirements in current 6G communications is of great practical significance. The goal of this track is to explore the characteristics of new air interface waveform technologies to overcome the shortcomings of OFDM and meet the various requirements of current 6G communications.
