Algorithm based new Tone Reservation method for mitigating PAPR in OFDM systems
There are abundant methods to mitigate PAPR in OFDM signals among which algorithm based tone reservation is of great popularity owing to its low complexity as well as decent BER. Here we have put forward a new distinct algorithm based Tone Reservation technique which is not only less complex and calculates its own threshold as well as PRT signal (unlike other algorithms requiring predetermined threshold and PRT) but also aptly modifies the data by bit by bit comparison with a modified copy of itself (algorithm modified) thus scaling the peaks as and providing a decent BER and good PAPR reduction.
Flexible Multi-Group Single-Carrier Modulation: Optimal Subcarrier Grouping and Rate Maximization
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and single-carrier
frequency domain equalization (SC-FDE) are two commonly adopted modulation
schemes for frequency-selective channels. Compared to SC-FDE, OFDM generally
achieves higher data rate, but at the cost of higher transmit signal
peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) that leads to lower power amplifier
efficiency. This paper proposes a new modulation scheme, called flexible
multi-group single-carrier (FMG-SC), which encapsulates both OFDM and SC-FDE as
special cases, thus achieving more flexible rate-PAPR trade-offs between them.
Specifically, a set of frequency subcarriers are flexibly divided into
orthogonal groups based on their channel gains, and SC-FDE is applied over each
of the groups to send different data streams in parallel. We aim to maximize
the achievable sum-rate of all groups by optimizing the subcarrier-group
mapping. We propose two low-complexity subcarrier grouping methods and show via
simulation that they perform very close to the optimal grouping by exhaustive
search. Simulation results also show the effectiveness of the proposed FMG-SC
modulation scheme with optimized subcarrier grouping in improving the rate-PAPR
trade-off over conventional OFDM and SC-FDE.Comment: Submitted for possible conference publicatio
Multicarrier-signal design with low peaks and low out-of-band power
Projecte fet en col.laboració amb el Department of Electrical and Information Technology. Lund UniversityThe high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and the high out-of-band power
(OBP) are two major drawbacks of multicarrier communication systems. Many
PAPR reduction and OBP supression techniques have been proposed in the literature
whereas not much has been proposed regarding the jointly reduction performance.
This thesis focuses on joint reducing time-domain peaks and out-of-band
leakage of OFDM signals. The resulting algorithm combines the bene ts of both
methods and yields better results than each method does separately
A Novel PAPR Reduction in Filter Bank Multi-Carrier (FBMC) with Offset Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (OQAM) Based VLC Systems
The peak to average power ratio (PAPR) is one of the major problem with multicarrier-based systems. Due to its improved spectral efficiency and decreased PAPR, Filter Bank Multicarrier (FBMC) has recently become an effective alternative to the orthogonal multiplexing division (OFDM). For filter bank multicarrier communication/offset quadrature amplitude modulation-Visible light communication (FBMC/OQAM-VLC) systems is proposed a PAPR reduction technique. The suggested approach overlaps the proposed FBMC/OQAM-based VLC data signal with the existing signals. Non-redundant signals and data signals do not overlap in the frequency domain because data signals are scattered on odd subcarriers whereas built signals use even subcarriers. To reduce the effects of large-amplitude signal reduction, the suggested technique converts negative signals into positive signals rather than clipping them off as in conventional FBMC-based VLC systems. The PAPR reduction and bit error rate (BER) are realized using a scaling factor in the transformed signals. Complementary cumulative distribution function(CCDF) and BER are used to calculate the performance of the proposed approach. The presented study found that FBMC/OQAM-VLC systems to achieve a good trade-off between PAPR reduction and BER
