Distributions of Upper PAPR and Lower PAPR of OFDM Signals in Visible Light Communications
Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) in visible light
communications (VLC) inherits the disadvantage of high peak-to-average power
ratio (PAPR) from OFDM in radio frequency (RF) communications. The upper peak
power and lower peak power of real-valued VLC-OFDM signals are both limited by
the dynamic constraints of light emitting diodes (LEDs). The efficiency and
transmitted electrical power are directly related with the upper PAPR (UPAPR)
and lower PAPR (LPAPR) of VLC-OFDM. In this paper, we will derive the
complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) of UPAPR and LPAPR, and
investigate the joint distribution of UPAPR and LPAPR.Comment: acceptted by IEEE ICASSP 2014. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Peak-to-average power ratio analysis for OFDM-based mixed-numerology transmissions
In this paper, the probability distribution of the peak to average power ratio (PAPR) is analyzed for the mixed numerologies transmission based on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). State of the art theoretical analysis implicitly assumes continuous and symmetric frequency spectrum of OFDM signals. Thus, it is difficult to be applied to the mixed-numerology system due to its complication. By comprehensively considering system parameters, including numerology, bandwidth and power level of each subband, we propose a generic analytical distribution function of PAPR for continuous-time signals based on level-crossing theory. The proposed approach can be applied to both conventional single numerology and mixed-numerology systems. In addition, it also ensures the validity for the noncontinuous-OFDM (NC-OFDM). Given the derived distribution expression, we further investigate the effect of power allocation between different numerologies on PAPR. Simulations are presented and show the good match of the proposed theoretical results
Dual-Polarization OFDM-OQAM Wireless Communication System
In this paper we describe the overall idea and results of a recently proposed
radio access technique based on filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) communication
system using two orthogonal polarizations: dual-polarization FBMC (DP-FBMC).
Using this system we can alleviate the intrinsic interference problem in FBMC
systems. This enables use of all the multicarrier techniques used in
cyclic-prefix orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) systems for
channel equalization, multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) processing, etc.,
without using the extra processing required for conventional FBMC. DP-FBMC also
provides other interesting advantages over CP-OFDM and FBMC such as more
robustness in multipath fading channels, and more robustness to receiver
carrier frequency offset (CFO) and timing offset (TO). For DP-FBMC we propose
three different structures based on different multiplexing techniques in time,
frequency, and polarization. We will show that one of these structures has
exactly the same system complexity and equipment as conventional FBMC. In our
simulation results DP-FBMC has better bit error ratio (BER) performance in
dispersive channels. Based on these results, DP-FBMC has potential as a
promising candidate for future wireless communication systems.Comment: 1.This paper is accepted to be published in IEEE Vehicular Technology

A joint OFDM PAPR reduction and data decoding scheme with no SI estimation
The need for side information (SI) estimation poses a major challenge when selected mapping (SLM) is implemented to reduce peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. Recent studies on pilot-assisted SI estimation procedures suggest that it is possible to determine the SI without the need for SI transmission. However, SI estimation adds to computational complexity and implementation challenges of practical SLM-OFDM receivers. To address these technical issues, this paper presents the use of a pilot-assisted cluster-based phase modulation and demodulation procedure called embedded coded modulation (ECM). The ECM technique uses a slightly modified SLM approach to reduce PAPR and to enable data recovery with no SI transmission and no SI estimation. In the presence of some non-linear amplifier distortion, it is shown that the ECM method achieves similar data decoding performance as conventional SLM-OFDM receiver that assumed a perfectly known SI and when the SI is estimated using a frequency-domain correlation approach. However, when the number of OFDM subcarriers is small and due to the clustering in ECM, the modified SLM produces a smaller PAPR reduction gain compared with conventional SLM
Democratic Representations
Minimization of the (or maximum) norm subject to a constraint
that imposes consistency to an underdetermined system of linear equations finds
use in a large number of practical applications, including vector quantization,
approximate nearest neighbor search, peak-to-average power ratio (or "crest
factor") reduction in communication systems, and peak force minimization in
robotics and control. This paper analyzes the fundamental properties of signal
representations obtained by solving such a convex optimization problem. We
develop bounds on the maximum magnitude of such representations using the
uncertainty principle (UP) introduced by Lyubarskii and Vershynin, and study
the efficacy of -norm-based dynamic range reduction. Our
analysis shows that matrices satisfying the UP, such as randomly subsampled
Fourier or i.i.d. Gaussian matrices, enable the computation of what we call
democratic representations, whose entries all have small and similar magnitude,
as well as low dynamic range. To compute democratic representations at low
computational complexity, we present two new, efficient convex optimization
algorithms. We finally demonstrate the efficacy of democratic representations
for dynamic range reduction in a DVB-T2-based broadcast system.Comment: Submitted to a Journa
