Abstract: The requirement of flexible allocation of available limited frequency resources led to rethink the possibilities to find an substitute to Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) [1], which can also meet the necessities of future wireless communication. In this paper, we have compared one such alternative to OFDM, which is Filter Bank Multi Carrier (FBMC) [2] with Offset Quadrature Amplitude Modulator (OQAM) . The BER performance of OQAM based MIMO FBMC compared with QAM based MIMO OFDM for various channels conditions and using different prototype filters [3] for FBMC and under the influence of Timing Offset errors with perfect CSI and imperfect CSI. Implementation of MIMO into OQAM-FBMC has a computational complexity compared to MIMO OFDM and we have used block coded MIMO OQAMFBMC for simulation. Three prototype filters RRC, Hermite and PHYDYAS are used to analyze the performance of OQAMFBMC in relations of Signal to Interference Ratio under time offset and found that performance of PHYDYAS prototype filter outperforms RRC and Hermite prototype filters.
