The high peak to average power ration (PAR) levels of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals attract the attention of many researchers during the past decade. Existing approaches that attack this PAR issue are abundant, but no systematic framework or comparison between them exists to date. They sometimes even differ in the problem definition itself and consequently in the basic approach to follow. In this paper, we propose a new trend in mitigating the peak power problem in OFDM system based on modeling the effects of clipping and amplifier nonlinearities in an OFDM system. We showed that the distortion due to these effects is highly related to the dynamic range itself rather than the clipping level or the saturation level of the nonlinear amplifier, and thus we propose two criteria to reduce the dynamic range of the OFDM, namely, the use of MSK modulation and the use of Hadamard transform. Computer simulations of the OFDM system using Matlab are completely matched with the deduced model in terms of OFDM signal quality metrics such as BER, ACPR, and EVM. Also simulation results show that even the reduction of PAR using the two proposed criteria is not significat, and the reduction in the amount of distortion due to HPA is truley delightful.

Abstract The main drawback in the performance of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system is the higher Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the OFDM signals at the transmitter side. Companding is a well-known technique useful for reducing PAPR in the OFDM signal. This paper proposes a new nonlinear companding scheme that transforms the magnitude of Rayleigh distributed OFDM signal of specific degree into trapezoidal distribution. Additional design parameter is used in the proposed companding scheme to make the companding function more flexible. In the designed OFDM system the companding function has more degree of freedom which improves the PAPR and bit error rate (BER) parameters of the designed system. It has been demonstrated that the designed companding scheme provides more flexibility to accomplish an optimum trade-off between the performance parameters PAPR and BER of the designed OFDM system.

This paper investigates clipping and filtering techniques in reducing peak average power ratio (PAPR) of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system. The concept of OFDM is to split a high speed serial data into parallel data at a lower speed, then the parallel data carried by mutually orthogonal subcarriers. The high of PAPR is one of disadvantages of OFDM system. The high PAPR can damages the form of OFDM and reduces its performance. The purpose of this study is to reduce PAPR using simulation. OFDM was simulated with and without clipping filtering then compared.  The methods used to reduce PAPR was clipping and filtering technique. Clipping and filtering technique operates by clipping the output of inverse Fourier transform that exceed the threshold. Graphics PAPR vs. CCDF was used to evaluate the performance of OFDM systems. PAPR for OFDM system using Fourier transform when CCDF = 10-3 is 11,2 dB, with classical clipping PAPR was 4,1 dB and PAPR 4,6 dB when with deep clipping.

Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) has been known to be a common problem in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). The peak value of power signals has contributed to other problems, thus the implementation of OFDM system in many wireless applications has been growing slowly. There are many techniques being discussed to reduce the PAPR in OFDM systems where one of them is reduction through scrambling. In this paper, a technique that is based on scrambling method in order to reduce high PAPR in OFDM system is introduced. This proposed technique is called the Selective Codeword Shift (SCS). The key idea of SCS is to produce a scramble data sequence where the candidate with minimum PAPR will then be selected for transmission. This has shown an improvement in reducing PAPR as compared to original OFDM signals and the conventional Selective Mapping (SLM) technique with 29.5% improvement. This technique also has the advantage of lower computational complexity as compared to conventional SLM where no multiplication of the phase factor involved in the process and no explicit side information was needed to retrieve the transmitted data at the receiver.

A data clipping and normalization technique is employed to improve the performance of the overall direct detection optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DCO-OFDM) system. A detailed analysis of clipping distortion introduced by digital clipping and normalization is provided. The normalization operation amplifies the clipped data signal to the maximum input amplitude of a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). Based on the analysis, a BER formula of the proposed scheme is derived over the AWGN channel and single fiber channel. Performance of an optical clipped OFDM with normalization is assessed through numerical simulations and Monte Claro simulation over the AWGN channel. Theoretical analysis and simulation results both show that the clipping and normalization scheme can greatly improve the BER of an optical OFDM. In particular, BER performance of the proposed transmission scheme was measured in a practical OFDM transmission platform. The measured experimental results show that the clipped and amplified OFDM signal exhibits superior performance in comparison with the conventional OFDM signal. The received sensitivity at a BER of 10−3 for a 4 Gsamples/s (2.6667 Gbits/s) clipped and normalized OFDM signal with clipping ratio of 4 after 100 km standard single-mode fiber (SMF) transmission was improved by 4.3 dB when compared with the conventional OFDM system. The measured results also showed that the clipped OFDM signal exhibits superior performance in comparison with the conventional OFDM signal. Therefore, a clipping and normalization at the transmitter is most effective, and a substantial performance improvement can be obtained by a simple normalization after clipping.

High Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) signal is one of the limitations to the transmission performance of optical OFDM system. In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid PAPR reduction technique called Hadamard Transform Combined with Partial transmit sequence (HTCP). The proposed HTCP scheme combines the merits of two complementary techniques, i.e., Hadamard transform and Partial Transmit Sequence (PTS), to improve the performance of the optical OFDM system in terms of PAPR and Bit Error Rate (BER). Simulation results show that the HTCP scheme has better performance with regard to PAPR and BER compared with the case of applying only the Hadamard transform or PTS technique.


In wireless communication system, the emerging technology is MU-Multiple Input Multiple Output-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MU-MIMO-OFDM). For minimizing Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) in the uplink transmission scheme, OFDM is exploited in MIMO system and compared with Single Carrier-Frequency Domain Processing (SC-FDP). Further reducing the PAPR value, a new method is proposed Hybrid Block Inf Diagonalization (HBID) technique for an uplink OFDM system and calculated the less Bit Error Rate (BER). In this paper, the HBID precoding technique reduces PAPR with such amount and unwanted amplitude of the signal is to be cut down for a specific threshold value as 1.4 for best performance so that the PAPR value is reduced in considerable rate of OFDM then compared to SC-FDP system. Also, we compared the various precoding techniques with HBID method in MIMO-OFDM systems with various parameters such as BER, PAPR, Number of users, Sum rate. Finally, the proposed method reduces PAPR with 47% and BER with 50%, number of users with 49% and sum rate as 57%. HBID based precoding method shows its excellence with the lowest PAPR value and thereby enhance the presentation of the OFDM system

AbstractDue to the increase in demand for high data rates in mobile communication, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system is employed in many applications. It efficiently overcomes the effect of Inter-symbol Interference caused due to the fading of the channel, but Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) is unitary of the disadvantages in OFDM System. In the stage-I, the OFDM system is designed with different modulation schemes like QAM-16, BPSK, and QPSK. In the latter stage, we work on the reduction of PAPR by using a clipping technique and we establish a significant reduction in PAPR as compared to the conventional clipping technique.

Abstract Peak to average power ratio (PAPR) is one of the major limitations of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems because the higher PAPR induces the signal to get out of linear region of high power amplifier (HPA). In this article, a hybrid PAPR reduction scheme based on the combination of optimized iterative clipping and filtering (OICF) method and phase rotation is proposed. Using phase rotation, signal’s initial PAPR has been reduced by 14.23 dB and then OICF further reduces the final PAPR by 1.37 dB. Decreased PAPR will play an important role in reducing systems power consumption.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) or multicarrier modulation is an essential signal processing technique in new generation wireless gadgets owing to its potential to support fast and spectrally efficient transmission. One of the major limitations of OFDM systems is the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of transmit data. In this article, a novel meta heuristic algorithm called modified grey wolf optimizer is used to boost the computing performance of subcarrier phase factor search in the undisputed partial transmit sequence method. The proposed modified grey wolf optimizer (mGWO) has a balancing between exploration and exploitation phases while searching for peak power carriers and brings out a nearly optimal performance but with less number of iterations. The objective is to propose low complex computing algorithm without compromising the output quality. The simulation results of proposed mGWO-PTS model assure improvements around 20 to 25 percent from that of the comparative counterparts such as GWO-PTS, PSO-PTS, and etc.

The ‘Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)’ is a well-accepted and effective technology employed today and in future wireless communication systems. The combinations of OFDM and ‘multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO’) offer high quality of services and better throughput. The multicarrier OFDM system experiences a high ‘peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR’), which is the major issue in the OFDM scheme and must be truncated to achieve trustworthy communication. Due to high PAPR in a signal to be transmitted, the power amplifier in the transmitter section enters into saturation region and amplifies the signal nonlinearly, resulting in loss of orthogonality and ultimately in ‘inter-carrier interference (ICI)’. In this article, the 'iterative clipping and filtering (ICF)' method is proposed to minimize the PAPR in the OFDM system. The simulation is carried out using MATLAB (version 2014b). The result of the proposed ICF method and the ‘selective mapping (SLM)’ scheme is analyzed and compared. From the analysis, it is shown that the proposed ICF technique is more suitable for minimizing the PAPR effectively without affecting ‘bit error rates (BER)’ much and the simplicity of the system. The simulation result of the proposed ICF scheme using ‘Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK)’, FFT size of 128, and clipping and filtering level up to 6 shows that the proposed ICF scheme for clipping level of 6 reduces PAPR to 5dB. Also, the BER is minimized at the level of 3×10−5 at 12 dB SNR.
