Efficient management of multi-dimensional resources has gained new aspects as inevitable results of the overlapping and coexistence of many communication systems. New waveforms approaches exploiting the complementary features of multi-dimensional resources emerge to be a tempting solution to break the bottleneck in the physical layer toward heterogeneous networks. In this context, novel waveform designs to fulfill the requirements of heterogeneous networks constitute our main research interests. Toward this ultimate point, our scope ranges from the fundamental properties of the waveforms (e.g., pulse shapes, orthogonality, nonorthogonality, time-frequency lattice, delay-Doppler-angular resolution) to the frame structures in the transmission. We investigate not only[...]
