The high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) is a serious drawback of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM). In this paper, the advantages of two different approaches to PAPR reduction are exploited in order to reduce the PAPR more significantly. The first approach is based on clipping and provides a high PAPR reduction at the cost of signal distortion. The second approach (selectiv...

Abstract: Recently, we proposed OFDM combined with time division multiplexing (OFDM/TDM) to alleviate the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) problem of OFDM. To further reduce the PAPR, amplitude clipping can be used. However, the bit error rate (BER) performance degrades and the out-of-band (OoB) power spectrum grows. Therefore, filtering is necessary to suppress the OoB power growth, but...

Peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is one of the main drawbacks in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. High PAPR forces the power amplifier to back off in order to operate in its linear region, which degrades the power efficiency of the system. Several PAPR reduction techniques have been developed, but most of them have not considered both complexity and PAPR reduction. I...

High peak-to-average power ratio of the transmit signal is a major drawback of multicarrier transmission such as OFDM. This paper describes Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system with Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM) mappers is considered. Such a system is known to provide superior bit error rate performance by virtue of the memory introduced by the CPM mapper compared to OFD...
