The present invention discloses the structure and operation of the geometric shift transform that enables the use of symbol alphabet code word representation of a user's binary data stream as the signal transport format from a central unit (modem) of a precoded OFDM system to a remote unit (the RF equipment). The invention simplifies the precoding transform (DFT) calculation, enables secure transmissions, and contemplates layer and resource block mapping operations in the central unit.

Disclosed is a multicarrier (MC) connection design via an intelligent exploitation of the multi-user diversity in delay-Doppler domain. Overall, the technology can play a key role as an enabler technology toward 5G and beyond communications systems with applications of NR-Lite, mMTC, eMBB, URLLC and SURLLC.

Devices, e.g., hardware accelerators, and systems are operable to perform a two-dimensional (2D) fast Fourier transform (FFT) on an MN element array. The hardware accelerator has log.sub.2 MN pipeline stages including an initial group of log.sub.2 M stages and a final group of log.sub.2 N stages. Each stage includes a butterfly unit, a FIFO buffer coupled to the butterfly unit, and a multiplier coupled to the butterfly unit and to an associated twiddle factor table. The hardware accelerator also includes butterfly control logic to provide elements of the MN element array to the initial group of stages in an N direction of the array, and twiddle factor addressing logic to, for the twiddle factor tables of the initial group of stages, apply an indexed entry of the twiddle factor table to the associated multiplier. The indexed entry begins as a first entry and advances by N entries after every N cycles.

The device comprises a transmitter and a receiver and it has a normal mode of TDD communication. In these devices, Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) is used as line measurement. It has a number of drawbacks, and for overcoming said drawbacks, Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR) measurement techniques adapted for TDD devices are suggested.

The invention relates to a method for reducing the PAPR in FRFT-OFDM systems, which belongs to the field of broadband wireless digital communications technology. The method is based on fractional random phase sequence and fractional circular convolution theorem, which can effectively reduce the PAPR of the system. The method of the invention has the advantages of simple system implementation and low computational complexity. In this method, the PAPR of the system can be effectively reduced while maintaining the reliability of the system. When the number of candidate signals is the same, the PAPR performance of the present method was found to be almost the same as that of SLM and better than that of PTS. More importantly, the present method has lower computational complexity than that of SLM and PTS methods.
