In this paper, towards the fifth generation (5G) massive machine type communications (mMTC), a theoretical framework of the design and evaluation model for analog fountain codes (AFC) is proposed. Motivated by the capacity analysis of AFC, we propose a weight adaptive (WA) AFC transmission scheme by introducing a limit feedback link, which can realize the optimal AFC in theoretical. Simulation results reveal that our WA-AFC coding scheme can approach the Shannon capacity in a wide range of SNRs over AWGN channel.
