Orthogonal Time Frequency Space Modulation: A Waveform for 6G

This book presents a discourse on a potential waveform for 6G--namely Orthogonal Time Frequency Space (OTFS) Modulation.

OTFS  has a distinct feature when compared to earlier generation waveforms  such that an information bearing signal is placed in the delay Doppler  domain as opposed to the usual placement of such signals in the  time-frequency domain. This unique feature of OTFS enables it to  overcome several disadvantages of a very popular and highly successful  waveform, namely Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). OTFS  is known to be more resilient to frequency offset than Doppler which is  one of the key drawbacks of OFDM. With this feature, OTFS can support  higher mobility as well as higher frequency bands of operation which is  also one of the key requirements of the next generation wireless  communication technologies. The implementation complexity of OTFS  remains comparable to that of OFDM. OTFS provides significant SNR  advantage, higher resilience, lower PAPR, lower out of band signal  leakage and higher multi-user spectral efficiency than that of OFDM.  This book addresses
