New methods of partial transmit sequence for reducing the high peak-to-average-power ratio with low complexity in the ofdm and f-ofdm systems
The orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system (OFDM) is one of the most important components for the multicarrier waveform design in the wireless communication standards. Consequently, the OFDM system has been adopted by many high-speed wireless standards. However, the high peak-to-average- power ratio (PAPR) is the main obstacle of the OFDM system in the real applications because of the non-linearity nature in the transmitter. Partial transmit sequence (PTS) is one of the effective PAPR reduction techniques that has been employed for reducing the PAPR value 3 dB; however, the high computational complexity is the main drawback of this technique. This thesis proposes novel methods and algorithms for reducing the high PAPR value with low computational complexity depending on the PTS technique. First, three novel subblocks partitioning schemes, Sine Shape partitioning scheme (SS-PTS), Subsets partitioning scheme (Sb-PTS), and Hybrid partitioning scheme (H-PTS) have been introduced for improving the PAPR reduction performance with low computational complexity in the frequency-domain of the PTS structure. Secondly, two novel algorithms, Grouping Complex iterations algorithm (G-C-PTS), and Gray Code Phase Factor algorithm (Gray-PF-PTS) have been developed to reduce the computational complexity for finding the optimum phase rotation factors in the time domain part of the PTS structure. Third, a new hybrid method that combines the Selective mapping and Cyclically Shifts Sequences (SLM-CSS-PTS) techniques in parallel has been proposed for improving the PAPR reduction performance and the computational complexity level. Based on the proposed methods, an improved PTS method that merges the best subblock partitioning scheme in the frequency domain and the best low-complexity algorithm in the time domain has been introduced to enhance the PAPR reduction performance better than the conventional PTS method with extremely low computational complexity level. The efficiency of the proposed methods is verified by comparing the predicted results with the existing modified PTS methods in the literature using Matlab software simulation and numerical calculation. The results that obtained using the proposed methods achieve a superior gain in the PAPR reduction performance compared with the conventional PTS technique. In addition, the number of complex addition and multiplication operations has been reduced compared with the conventional PTS method by about 54%, and 32% for the frequency domain schemes, 51% and 65% for the time domain algorithms, 18% and 42% for the combining method. Moreover, the improved PTS method which combines the best scheme in the frequency domain and the best algorithm in the time domain outperforms the conventional PTS method in terms of the PAPR reduction performance and the computational complexity level, where the number of complex addition and multiplication operation has been reduced by about 51% and 63%, respectively. Finally, the proposed methods and algorithms have been applied to the OFDM and Filtered-OFDM (F-OFDM) systems through Matlab software simulation, where F-OFDM refers to the waveform design candidate in the next generation technology (5G)

Two novel nonlinear companding schemes with iterative receiver to reduce PAPR in multi-carrier modulation systems
Companding transform is an efficient and simple method to reduce the Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) for Multi-Carrier Modulation (MCM) systems. But if the MCM signal is only simply operated by inverse companding transform at the receiver, the resultant spectrum may exhibit severe in-band and out-of-band radiation of the distortion components, and considerable peak regrowth by excessive channel noises etc. In order to prevent these problems from occurring, in this paper, two novel nonlinear companding schemes with a iterative receiver are proposed to reduce the PAPR. By transforming the amplitude or power of the original MCM signals into uniform distributed signals, the novel schemes can effectively reduce PAPR for different modulation formats and sub-carrier sizes. Despite moderate complexity increasing at the receiver, but it is especially suitable to be combined with iterative channel estimation. Computer simulation results show that the proposed schemes can offer good system performances without any bandwidth expansion
