A Comprehensive Survey on Air-Interfaces for 5G and beyond

As a new milestone in wireless communication the 5th Generation mobile and cellular system is expected to be operational in 2020. The enhancement of the technology will happen in the subsequent years expecting new requirements. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of various candidate waveforms to be used in 5G and beyond [1]. The performance metrics or QoS parameters of these waveform candidates are highlighted. The recommendations for various scenarios are also specified.
