Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation using orthogonal subcarriers reduces the delay spread by increasing robustness to multipath fading and can use overlapped bandwidth due to orthogonality on frequency domain. The main drawback of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM) systems is the high peak-to average power ratio (PAPR),which significantly reduces the effic...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is an efficient method of data transmission for high speed communication systems. However, the main drawback of OFDM system is the high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the transmitted signals. OFDM consist of large number of independent subcarriers, as a result of which the amplitude of such a signal can have high peak values. Coding, phas...

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) suffers from a high peak to average power ratio (PAPR). Tone reservation (TR) technology is considered as one of the most promising methods because of no additional distortion, no side information, and low implementation cost. However, in all PAPR reduction schemes,determining the optimal target clipping level is difficult. In this paper, we con...

OFDM and its extension Multi-band OFDM (MB-OFDM) are considered as the modulation schemes for many future communications systems. But these schemes cause high PAPR which should be reduced before power amplification otherwise non-linearities can occur. In this paper Tone Reservation method is used for OFDM PAPR reduction where a corrective signal is added to the original signal to reduce its PAP...

Peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is one of the main drawbacks in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. High PAPR forces the power amplifier to back off in order to operate in its linear region, which degrades the power efficiency of the system. Several PAPR reduction techniques have been developed, but most of them have not considered both complexity and PAPR reduction. I...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has well known advantages such as robustness against frequency selective fading and narrowband interference, high efficiency on bandwidth, and efficient implementation. Recently, OFDM has been widely used in digital audio broadcasting (DAB), digital video broadcasting-terrestrial (DVB-T), mobile multimedia access communication (MMAC), IEEE802.11...

Peak-toaverage power ratio (PAPR) is one of the major problems of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). The larger PAPR signal may cause high out-of-band radiation, when the OFDM signal is passed through a radio frequency power amplifier. In literatures, many researchers proposed various methods to reduce PAPR. Among those, Dummy sequence Insertion (DSI) and partial transmit sequen...

Multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) technology is one of the most attractive candidates for fourth generation (4G) mobile radio communication. It effectively combats the multipath fading channel and improves the bandwidth efficiency. At the same time, it also increases system capacity so as to provide a reliable transmission. However, the main d...
