A novel PAPR reduction scheme based on selective mapping and a random-like coding with no explicit side information in OFDM

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a promising technique for high data rate and reliable communication over fading channels. The main implementation drawback of this system is the possibility of high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR). In this paper, we develop a novel Selective Mapping (SLM) PAPR reduction technique. In the novel proposed scheme, the alternative symbol sequences are generated by module 2 additions of data with the rows of cyclic Hadamard matrix with the same size, inserting the selected row's number to avoid transmitting any side information and specially using a random-like Irregular Repeat Accumulate (IRA) encoder for both PAPR and Bit Error Rate (BER) better performance.

Efficient PAPR reduction of OFDM signal using PTS technique with hybrid partitioning method

The high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is one of the major problems of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in wireless transmission.Therefore, partial transmit sequence (PTS), a promising scheme that can provide good PAPR reduction performance, has been proposed for OFDM transmission to eliminate distortion. The PTS method divides the input data block into disjoint sub-blocks, computes Inverse Fourier Transform of the subblocks, rotates the sub-blocks with appropriate phase factors and combines them to form the transmitted signal.This paper presents an enhanced PTS approach that combines two PTS partitioning schemes (adjacent and interleaved) to effectively reduce the PAPR of the OFDM systems. The influence of the proposed approach on performance is investigated by varying the size of the disjoint sub-blocks.The PAPR reduction performance of the proposed PTS method is compared with two well known sub-blocks partitioning schemes, namely, Adjacent Partitioning (AP), Interleaved Partitioning (IP).The various computer simulation results for the various sub-blocks confirmed that the proposed method provides better PAPR reduction performance compared with AP and IP partitioning based PTS scheme. In addition, these PTS schemes largely depend on the chosen size of the partitions

Therefore, partial transmit sequence (PTS), a promising scheme that can provide good PAPR reduction performance, has been proposed for OFDM transmission to eliminate distortion.

Gaussian Pulse-Based Two-Threshold Parallel Scaling Tone Reservation for PAPR Reduction of OFDM Signals

Tone Reservation (TR) is a technique proposed to combat the high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) problem of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) signals. However conventional TR suffers from high computational cost due to the difficulties in finding an effective cancellation signal in the time domain by using only a few tones in the frequency domain. It also suffers from a high cost of hardware implementation and long handling time delay issues due to the need to conduct multiple iterations to cancel multiple high signal peaks. In this paper, we propose an efficient approach, called two-threshold parallel scaling, for implementing a previously proposed Gaussian pulse-based Tone Reservation algorithm. Compared to conventional approaches, this technique significantly reduces the hardware implementation complexity and cost, while also reducing signal processing time delay by using just two iterations. Experimental results show that the proposed technique can effectively reduce the PAPR of OFDM signals with only a very small number of reserved tones and with limited usage of hardware resources. This technique is suitable for any OFDM-based communication systems, especially for Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) systems employing large IFFT/FFT transforms
