Abstract
Research into cutting-edge systems that can satisfy the rising needs for greater data rate and increased reliability is becoming more and more necessary as wireless communication technologies continue to evolve. To enhance the spectral and energy efficiencies, this study examine the performance of massive multiple input multiple output (mMIMO) communication systems using wavelet-order orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (W-OFDM). Also, a communication system was created based on W-OFDM Massive MIMO using MATLAB to model its operation. The simulated system's various stages of operation was examined through detailed analysis and its performance was compare with prior studies and practical networks on OFDM. Key performance metrics, specifically the data throughput, was evaluated to assess the effectiveness and viability of the system. The simulation results indicates that W-OFDM can achieve up to 35% reduction in peak-to-average-power-ratio (PAPR) compared to the traditional OFDM, with a 20% improvement in BER performance under Rayleigh fading conditions. Also, the spectral efficiency of W-OFDM mMIMO outperforms convectional OFDM by 15%, making it a viable technology for future communication networks requiring high data rates and reliability. This implies that, the analytical evaluation confirms that W-OFDM mMIMO provides substantial benefits for improving energy and spectral efficiencies in wireless communication systems, addressing the challenges of increased user demands for high spectrum. This study contributes to the understanding of MIMO systems' performance optimization, highlighting the importance of antenna configuration and cell distance. Comprehensive analysis of spectral efficiency and energy efficiency trade-offs in MIMO systems and identification of optimal antenna configuration for maximum energy efficiency, addressing some of the challenges of future wireless communication systems.
