description Offset quadrature amplitude modulation–based filter bank multicarrier (FBMC-OQAM) method is a promising technology for future wireless communication systems. It offers several advantages over traditional orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation, including higher spectral efficiency, lower out-of-band emission, and improved robustness to time-frequency selective channels. Polar codes, a new class of error-correcting codes, have received much attention recently due to their ability to achieve the Shannon limit with practical decoding complexity. This paper analyzed and investigated the error rate performance of polar-coded FBMC-OQAM systems. Our results show that applying polar codes to FBMC-OQAM systems significantly improves the error rate. In addition, we found that employing random code interleavers can yield additional coding gains of up to 0.75 dB in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and 2 dB in Nakagami-m fading channels. Our findings suggest that polar-coded FBMC-OQAM is a promising combination for future wireless communication systems. We also compared turbo-coded FBMC-OQAM for short code lengths, and our simulations showed that polar codes exhibit comparable error-correcting capabilities. These results will be of interest to researchers and engineers working on the advancement of future wireless communication systems.
