The Internet of Things (IoT) is a new network that connects massive devices which have the communication ability. With the requirement of various services and the wireless spectrums becoming increasingly scarce, we consider a nonorthogonal multicarrier transmission scheme that is spectrum efficient frequency division multiplexing (SEFDM) as the downlink transmission scheme for IoT network. SEFDM has the merit of improved bandwidth usage efficiency, but the serious inter carrier interference (ICI) will be introduced by multiplexing overlapped carriers. Thus, the signal detection is challenged for recovering the signal which is suffered from ICI due to the loss of the orthogonality. In this paper, a low complexity detector based on quasi-orthogonality compensation (QOC) is proposed in the downlink receiver. And the complexity of the QOC detector is also analyzed. Moreover, a novel detector which joint QOC and fixed sphere decoding (FSD) algorithm is proposed. The bit error rate performances of QOC and QOC-FSD detectors are evaluated by numerical simulations. Numerical results show that the QOC and QOC-FSD detectors can achieve better performance than conventional iterative detection (ID) and ID-FSD, respectively. Furthermore, QOC-FSD detector performs a lower complexity than ID-FSD detector.
