Resource Block Assignment to Reduce Peak to Average Power Ratio in Multi-User OFDM

This paper proposes the assignment of resource blocks (RBs) to reduce the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in a multi-user OFDM system. This system ranks the users according to the channel state information (CSI) for RB assignment. In our proposed technique, an RB is assigned to either the firstor second-ranked mobile station (MS) to minimi...

Analog Codes for Peak-to-Average Ratio Reduction

| Multi-tone modulation (DMT, Discrete Multitone, OFDM, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) has the disadvantage of a quite high peak-toaverage ratio. Clipping of the high amplitudes caused by the analog circuitry leads to additional noise. In this contribution we show that in principal, so-called Analog Codes (Reed-Solomon Codes over complex numbers) can be used for eliminating this noise.

Peak-to-Average Power Ratio Reduction Techniques for OFDM Signals

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been adopted as a standard for many modern wireless applications requiring high data rate due to bandwidth efficiency, resistance to frequency selective fading and simple digital realization using IFFT/FFT operations. However, physical implementation of the OFDM system suffers from several difficulties. One of the major limitations of OFDM i...

Peak to Average Power Ratio in Digital Communications

The Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) is currently viewed as an important implementation issue in communication systems. Specifically, for wireless cellular systems the price of the mobile unit is required to remain low. This means that a limited PAPR can be supported. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) and Single Carrier (SC) are the prominent candidates for the next generation...
