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
