The objective of the next generation communication system is to construct a “global information village”, which encompasses a range of components at different scales extending from global to pico cellular size. The Circular Filter Bank Multicarrier Communication (C-FBMC) is an innovative transmission method that works by linking the standard FBMC with circular convolution. This arrangement is in the form of a block and acquires orthogonality amongst subcarriers. This research paper employs a Walsh-Hadamard precoding system to the C-FBMC system in order to manipulate frequency levels within a channel that is multipath in nature. The hypothetical estimation for the subsequent BER arrangement is derived with the help of this method in the paper. The performance and working of the arrangement is compared with the pre-coded Generalised Frequency Division Multiplexing (GFDM) arrangement. Results of the paper highlight that the results drawn are quite similar or matching to the outcomes of simulation and the amount or frequency of WHTC-FBMC is quite higher in comparison to the WHT-GFDM.
