Abstract: Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is an emerging field of research in the field of wireless communication and finds its application where high data rate is required at low latency and better spectral efficiency. Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) is the limiting factor for an OFDM system as it degrades the system performance by reducing SQNR of ADC/DAC as well as affec...

This paper briefs about the Partial Transmit Sequences for Peak-to-Average Power Ratio Reduction of OFDM Signals, PAPR reduction efficiency of this method in comparison with Companding and Clipping and some merits and demerits of using various methods of PAPR reduction.

In this paper, we propose a peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction scheme with selective tone reservation. In this scheme, the preset peak reduction tone (PRT) set would be divided into M PRT subsets that can generate M time-domain kernels. The differences of the slopes for the phase responses of the M timedomain kernels would be considered to design the M PRT subsets in reducing the PAPR...

OFDM is a form of multicarrier modulation technique with high spectral efficiency, robustness to channel fading, immunity to impulse interference, uniform average spectral density capacity of handling very strong echoes and non-linear distortion. Despite of its many advantages, one major disadvantage of OFDM is that the time domain OFDM signal which is a sum of several sinusoids leads to high p...

—Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is an attractive modulation technique for transmitting large amounts of digital data over radio waves. One major disadvantage of OFDM is the high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) considered as the main implementation drawback of OFDM system.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has emerged as a promising modulation technique for high speed optical systems as it reduces intersymbol interference and offers high spectral efficiency. But it has an inherent drawback of high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) due to multiple subcarriers which makes it sensitive to non linear effects. Different techniques have been proposed f...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing System (OFDM) suffers from the problem of high peak to average power ratio reduction (PAPR). It is studied that Golay complementary codes (GCC) can provide codewords with low PAPR. However, the usefulness of this coding technique is limited to the OFDM with a small number of subcarriers. With the help of certain theorems and definitions, this paper dis...

In this paper we propose a blind algorithm for peakto-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction in OFDM systems, based on selected mapping (SLM) algorithm as a distortionless method. The main drawback of the conventional SLM technique is the need for transmission of several side information bits, for each data block, which results in loss in data rate transmission. In the proposed method some specia...

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has gained much popularity in the field of wireless communication because of its ability to transfer the data at higher rate, high bandwidth efficiency and its robustness to multipath. Since OFDM has high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) as major limitation, many techniques were proposed to reduce it. In this paper, a DCT based modified select...
