1 Comparison of FDMA and OFDM signals; (a) five FDMA channels with guard band and (b) 5 OFDM orthogonal channels. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a communication technique that can be seen as either a modulation scheme or a multiplexing technique .
Read moreWhat is OFDM technique?
Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing is a method of data transmission where a single information stream is split among several closely spaced narrowband subchannel frequencies instead of a single Wideband channel frequency .
Read moreIs OFDMA multiplexing technique?
Conceptually, OFDM is a specialized frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) method , with the additional constraint that all subcarrier signals within a communication channel are orthogonal to one another.

The 5G New Radio (NR) standard uses OFDM on both the uplink and downlink . The NR specification is designed with a high degree of flexibility to cover a diverse set of applications.16 Nis 2020

With OFDMA, multiple users are assigned access to subsets or subcarriers . The ability to tap into smaller segments of the frequency spectrum with timed functionality will become even more important in 5G, where data will travel on millimeter waves.7 Nis 2017
Read moreHow is 5G modulated?
Phase shift keying: 5G technology implements quadrature phase shift keying, QPSK as the lowest order modulation format . Although this will provide the slowest data throughput it will also provide the most robust link and as such it can be used when signal levels are low or when interference is high.
