    In this letter, we propose a method to reduce the peak-to-mean-envelope-power ratio (PMEPR) of multicarrier signals by modifying the constellation. ForMM-ary phase-shift keying constellations, we minimize the maximum of the multicarrier signal over the sign and amplitude of each subcarrier. In order to find an efficient solution to the aforementioned nonconvex optimization problem, we present a suboptimal solution by first optimizing over the signs, and then optimizing over the amplitudes given the signs. We prove that the minimization of the maximum of a continuous multicarrier signal over the amplitude of each subcarrier can be written as a convex optimization problem with linear matrix inequality constraints. We also generalize the idea to other constellations such as 16-quadrature amplitude modulation. Simulation results show that by an average power increase of 0.21 dB, and not sending information over the sign of each subcarrier, PMEPR can be decreased by 5.1 dB for a system with 128 subcarriers

    In this paper, we propose a method to reduce the peak to mean envelope power ratio (PMEPR) of multicarrier signals by modifying the constellation. For MPSK constellations, we minimize the maximum of the multicarrier signal over the sign and amplitude of each subcarrier. In order to find an efficient solution to the aforementioned non-convex optimization problem, we present a suboptimal solution by first optimizing over the signs using the result of [1], and then optimizing over the amplitudes given the signs. We prove that the minimization of the maximum of a multicarrier signal over the amplitude of each subcarrier can be written as a convex optimization problem with linear matrix inequality constraints. We also generalize the idea to other constellations such as 16QAM. Simulation results show that by an average power increase of 0.21 db and not sending information over the sign of each subcarrier, PMEPR can be decreased by 5.1 db for a system with 128 subcarriers

    An object of research is a vibration of the stator of the knife refining machines and its interrelation with the factors which influences the course of refining among them are technical condition of a plate and change of characteristics of the ground material. The diagnostic model of process of refining is developed and positively approved. The new method of determination of degree of wear of the refining plate of refiners is offered. The new method of management of functioning of the knife refining machines is developed. It is shown that management of work on this indirect indicator is not worse, than the management based on the earlier known diagnostic signs of refiners functioning. The developed method of management is indispensible for the refiners with stepwise regulation of a gap, in a disk-conic refiners and in a dual refiners. Realization of this method under production conditions showed stable characteristics of a gain in degree of refining of a semi-finished fibrous product and decrease in specific power consumption during refining. The developed methods can be used in other branches of industry, for example, mining and metallurgy. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved
