    We extend Mazo's concept of faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signaling to pulse trains that modulate a bank of subcarriers, a method called two dimensional FTN signaling. The signal processing is similar to orthogonal frequency division multiplex(OFDM) transmission but the subchannels are not orthogonal. Despite nonorthogonal pulses and subcarriers, the method achieves the isolated-pulse error performance; it does so in as little as half the bandwidth of ordinary OFDM. Euclidean distance properties are investigated for schemes based on several basic pulses. The best have Gaussian shape. An efficient distance calculation is given. Concatenations of ordinary codes and FTN are introduced. The combination achieves the outer code gain in as little as half the bandwidth. Receivers must work in two dimensions, and several iterative designs are proposed for FTN with outer convolutional coding.
