A Review Paper on PAPR Reduction in OFDM using SLM and Adaptive Clipping
Orthogonal Frequency division Multiplexing (OFDM) is an effectual technique of data transmission for high speed communication schemes. However, the main drawback of OFDM system is the high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the communicated signals. OFDM contain of large number of independent subcarriers, as a result of which the amplitude of such a signal can have high peak values. Coding, phase rotation and clipping are between many PAPR reduction schemes that have been proposed to overcome this problem. Here in this paper we survey on two different PAPR reduction methods adaptive clipping and selective mapping (SLM) are used to reduce PAPR. Important reduction in PAPR has been achieved using these techniques
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
Peak to average power ratio reduction in NC–OFDM systems
Non contiguous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (NC-OFDM) is an efficient and adaptable multicarrier modulation scheme to be used in cognitive radio communications. However like OFDM, NC-OFDM also suffers from the main drawback of high peak to average power ratio (PAPR). In this paper PAPR has been reduced by employing three different trigonometric transforms. Discrete cosine transform (DCT), discrete sine transform (DST) and fractional fourier transform (FRFT) has been combined with conventional selected level mapping (SLM) technique to reduce the PAPR of both OFDM and NC-OFDM based systems. The method combines all the transforms with SLM in different ways. Transforms DCT, DST and FRFT have been applied before the SLM block or inside the SLM block before IFFT. Simulation results show the comparative analysis of all the transforms using SLM in case of both OFDM and NC-OFDM based systems
PAR-Aware Large-Scale Multi-User MIMO-OFDM Downlink
We investigate an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)-based
downlink transmission scheme for large-scale multi-user (MU) multiple-input
multiple-output (MIMO) wireless systems. The use of OFDM causes a high
peak-to-average (power) ratio (PAR), which necessitates expensive and
power-inefficient radio-frequency (RF) components at the base station. In this
paper, we present a novel downlink transmission scheme, which exploits the
massive degrees-of-freedom available in large-scale MU-MIMO-OFDM systems to
achieve low PAR. Specifically, we propose to jointly perform MU precoding, OFDM
modulation, and PAR reduction by solving a convex optimization problem. We
develop a corresponding fast iterative truncation algorithm (FITRA) and show
numerical results to demonstrate tremendous PAR-reduction capabilities. The
significantly reduced linearity requirements eventually enable the use of
low-cost RF components for the large-scale MU-MIMO-OFDM downlink.Comment: To appear in IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication
