Abstract :
In this letter we study filtered multitone modulation (FMT) for broadband multiuser power line communications. We address the implementation problem, and we derive a novel efficient digital implementation of both the synthesis and the analysis filter bank. A simple fractionally spaced multiuser receiver is also proposed.
