Analysis of Alternative Metrics for the PAPR Problem in OFDM Transmission
The effective PAPR of the transmit signal is the standard metric to capture
the effect of nonlinear distortion in OFDM transmission. A common rule of thumb
is the log barrier where is the number of subcarriers which has been
theoretically analyzed by many authors. Recently, new alternative metrics have
been proposed in practice leading potentially to different system design rules
which are theoretically analyzed in this paper. One of the main findings is
that, most surprisingly, the log barrier turns out to be much too
conservative: e.g. for the so-called amplifier-oriented metric the scaling is
rather . To prove this result, new upper bounds on the PAPR
distribution for coded systems are presented as well as a theorem relating PAPR
results to these alternative metrics.Comment: 5 pages, IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT),

On the peak-to-average power of OFDM signals based on oversampling
Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) introduces large amplitude variations in time, which can result in significant signal distortion in the presence of nonlinear amplifiers. We introduce a new bound for the peak of the continuous envelope of an OFDM signal, based on the maximum of its corresponding oversampled sequence; it is shown to be very tight as the oversampling rate increases. The bound is then used to derive a closed-form probability upper bound for the complementary cumulative distribution function of the peak-to-mean envelope power ratio of uncoded OFDM signals for sufficiently large numbers of subcarriers. As another application of the bound for oversampled sequences, we propose tight relative error bounds for computation of the peak power using two main methods: the oversampled inverse fast Fourier transform and the method introduced for coded systems based on minimum distance decoding of the code
Research on SLM Algorithm for PAPR reduction in MB-OFDM UWB Systems
AbstractMultiband orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MB-OFDM) is one of the key techniques of ultra wideband (UWB) systems. A major drawback of MB-OFDM technique is the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of the transmit signal. In this paper, a novel phase sequence of selected mapping algorithm which makes the side information not needed is designed to lower the PAPR of MB-OFDM UWB signals. It is also shown that comparable PAPR reduction performance with the original SLM algorithm can be achieved with a small increase in signal power. Simulation results show that there must be equilibriums between SLM computational complexity and PAPR performance. The objective of the new algorithm is to lower PAPR close to ordinary SLM technique with reduced computational complexity with little performance degradation and achieves better system resource utilization
Optimized Adaptive Huffmann Coding For Paper Reduction in OFDM Systems
The main defect of OFDM systems is its high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). To decrease PAPR, Adaptive Huffman coding is essential. Encoding is transferred by two encoding techniques Huffman coding and Adaptive Huffman coding at the transmitter side. Mapping is done by QAM 16 and PSK 16.The PAPR results of Huffman and adaptive Huffman coding with QAM 16 and PSK 16 is compared. Simulation results shows that the Adaptive Huffman coding along with QAM 16 produces fruitful results in comparison with Huffman coding and adaptive Huffman coding with PSK 16
On the Peak-to-Mean Envelope Power Ratio of Phase-Shifted Binary Codes
The peak-to-mean envelope power ratio (PMEPR) of a code employed in
orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems can be reduced by
permuting its coordinates and by rotating each coordinate by a fixed phase
shift. Motivated by some previous designs of phase shifts using suboptimal
methods, the following question is considered in this paper. For a given binary
code, how much PMEPR reduction can be achieved when the phase shifts are taken
from a 2^h-ary phase-shift keying (2^h-PSK) constellation? A lower bound on the
achievable PMEPR is established, which is related to the covering radius of the
binary code. Generally speaking, the achievable region of the PMEPR shrinks as
the covering radius of the binary code decreases. The bound is then applied to
some well understood codes, including nonredundant BPSK signaling, BCH codes
and their duals, Reed-Muller codes, and convolutional codes. It is demonstrated
that most (presumably not optimal) phase-shift designs from the literature
attain or approach our bound.Comment: minor revisions, accepted for IEEE Trans. Commun
An efficient technique for out-of-band power reduction for the eliminated CP-STC-shaped system for 5G requirements
The most dominant needs for the recent wireless mobile applications are higher bandwidth (BW) efficiency, higher energy efficiency higher quality of services (QOS). The main technique in 4G systems is OFDM but it suffers from some limitations such as large peak to average power ratio (PAPR), higher Out-of-Band (OOB) power radiation, and wasting bandwidth efficiency due to cyclic prefix (CP) extension. In his paper, these OFDM limitations will be reduced with low computational complexity compared to filter bank multicarriers (FBMC). The proposed scheme is based on symbol time compression (STC) for OFDM system. The proposed STC-Shaped system is achieved via interleaver-spreader and symbol shaper in the transmitter side in addition to equalization and combining processes in the receiver side. Comparative study between the proposed system and the conventional OFDM in case of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and COST 207 typical multipath fading channel will be presented. The numerical results show that the proposed STC-Shaped scheme reduces OOB significantly. The proposed scheme improves BER in multipath Rayleigh fading although it is without CP. Thus, the proposed system is more robust against inter symbol interference (ISI) compared to conventional OFDM system. Also, the numerical results show that the PAPR of the proposed system is decreased significantly and also, it is derived theoretically. Also, the proposed scheme overcomes CP extension, and hence increases the bandwidth (BW) efficiency. Finally, the computational complexity for the proposed scheme is derived and it has very low complexity compared to FBMC. The system performance measurments has been fulfilled using cumulative distribution function (CDF), power spectral density (PSD) and bit error rate (BER)
