scholarly journals Hybrid Model for PAPR Minimization in OFDM System

The technology has been growing rapidly in the form of portable wireless devices that can perform multiple functions to cope with the state-of-the-art technology and synchronization. A total device capacity must be increased to accommodate new wireless applications. This can be achieved by leveraging new technologies, with higher data rates. Spectrum pooling has gained immense popularity, with increased demand for frequency range and bandwidth availability constraints. Statistics suggest that much of the spectrum licensed is not used all the time. Because of the transmitter's nonlinearity nature, the large (peak to average power ratio (PAPR)) phenomenon is a drawback in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). Several hybrid approaches have recently been implemented to minimize PAPR's high value, at the expense of increasing the level of computational complexity in the system. In this paper, a new hybrid approach has been introduced in parallel to combine the selective mapping approach (SLM) with the partial transmit sequence (PTS) approach to improve the efficiency of PAPR reduction with lower numerical method complexity. The findings reveal that the OFDM systems with the proposed hybrid approach have better efficiency in terms of PAPR elimination, side-information, and computational complexity compared to current hybrid methods. Also, a hybrid approach proposed output could be maintained without degradation. Index Terms: OFDM, PTS, PAPR, SLM

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.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is the highly spectrally well-organized method that has the difficulty of excessive peak power to average power ratio (PAPR), which ultimately imposes constraints on the high-power amplifier. Many practices have been projected to lessen PAPR of the OFDM systems. Amongst all the practices, the selected mapping (SLM) method has drawn more attention because of distortion-less behaviour. This technique uses unique phase sequences. It has been learnt that phase formation for SLM is very tedious. In the proposed work, the SLM method has been used, but phase arrangement formation is based on the usage of discrete cosine transform (DCT) matrix. In this proposed work, discrete cosine transform matrix has been chosen based on the requirement of optimization so that the arrangement with lowest PAPR can be nominated for the transmission. MATLAB simulation depicts that the remarkable gain is achieved as compared with the existing technique. In the proposed work, scheming of phase sequences are very informal due to the use of a DCT matrix which has a definite structure and can be generated at the receiver side with the help of side information of the phases and communicated from the transmitter to the receiver.

The transceiver combination technology, of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), provides a viable alternative to enhance the quality of service and simultaneously to achieve high spectral efficiency and data rate for wireless mobile communication systems. However, the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is the main concern that should be taken into consideration in the MIMO-OFDM system. Partial transmit sequences (PTSs) is a promising scheme and straightforward method, able to achieve an effective PAPR reduction performance, but it requires an exhaustive search to find the optimum phase factors, which causes high computational complexity increased with the number of subblocks. In this paper, a reduced computational complexity PTS scheme is proposed, based on a novel swarm intelligence algorithm, called fireworks algorithm (FWA). Simulation results confirmed the adequacy and the effectiveness of the proposed method which can effectively reduce the computation complexity while keeping good PAPR reduction. Moreover, it turns out from the results that the proposed PTS scheme-based FWA clearly outperforms the hottest and most important evolutionary algorithm in the literature like simulated annealing (SA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), and genetic algorithm (GA).

A novel peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction technique for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems is addressed. Instead of using dedicated pilots for PAPR reduction as with tone reservation (TR) method selected by the DVB-T2 standard, we propose to use existing pilots used for channel estimation. In this way, we avoid the use of reserved tone pilots and then improve the spectral efficiency of the system. In order to allow their recovery at the receiver, these pilots have to follow particular laws which permit their blind detection and avoid sending side information. In this work, we propose and investigate a multiplicative law operating in discrete frequency domain. The operation in discrete domain aims at reducing degradation due to detection and estimation error in continuous domain. Simulation results are performed using the new DVB-T2 standard parameters. Its performance is compared to the DVB-T2 PAPR gradient algorithm and to the second-order cone programming (SOCP) competitive technique proposed in the literature. We show that the proposed technique is efficient in terms of PAPR reduction value and of spectral efficiency while the channel estimation performance is maintained.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation is proposed in 4G wireless communication systems, and is under consideration for the next generation 5G systems. This is due to the higher spectral efficiency (SE) and the better immunity to channel distortions. One of the shortcomings in OFDM is its high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). Several schemes have been proposed to reduce the PAPR in OFDM systems. This includes clipping, coding, and pre/post-distortion schemes with or without side information. In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate one of the most promising method, to mitigate the effect of PAPR, entitled the partial orthogonal selective mapping (POSLM). The experimental results show a comparable performance with respect to the simulation results in terms of PAPR reduction, power spectral density (PSD), and bit error rate (BER) metrics.

Abstract Perpendicular rate of recurrence splitting up a group of numeral television or radio channels that are mixed together for broadcast Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing which can be a potential diffusion method for elevating the transmission capacity of the communication systems. In spite of the significance of OFDM, the primary issue of the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) which augments communication system complications, reduces the effectiveness of the communication system, resulting in low performance of bit-error-rate (BER), and making OFDM perceptive toward non-linear distortion within a broadcast. Various techniques were projected for treating PAPR issues, inclusive of partial transmit sequence (PTS) which captivated great interest. Thus, this paper proposed a hybrid method inclusive of a boosted PTS scheme with Mu-law compressing and expanding approach. The PTS approach was boosted through boosting its sub-block partitioning scheme, the place where the aggrandized partitioning scheme consolidated a conventional interleaved partitioning into an adjacent partitioning scheme. The present merger concerning Mu-Law characteristic in time domain for PAPR reduction in OFDM fundamentally boosts PAPR diminution performance. Accordingly, though the simulated pseudorandom sub-block partition method improved PAPR diminution supplementary further than other sub-block partition schemes appertaining to conventional PTS, while maintaining low computational complexity. The findings show that the boosted PTS scheme with Mu-law expanding approach, whilst upholding low computational complexity, achieves considerably superior to the pseudorandom partitioning PTS with regard to various type of modulation format and subcarriers.

Partial transmit sequence (PTS) scheme is one of the most effective way to reduce peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The cyclic shift on time-domain PTS has better performance in PAPR reduction than that of the conventional PTS (C-PTS), and the receiver can recover phase rotations without using side information (SI). However, the receiver must know channel response before detecting and perform complex operations in order to detect the phase rotation factors. In this letter we proposed a pilot design method based on cyclic shift on time-domain PTS, which can estimate phase rotation factors and channel response more easily. Simulation results show that the PAPR performance of the proposed method is approximately same as the cyclic shift PTS scheme and the BER performance is also as well as C-PTS with perfect SI in multipath channel scene.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) while being an efficient scheme for high data rate wireless communications has drawbacks such as higher Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR). To reduce PAPR, use of multiple signal representation technique such as Partial Transmit Sequence (PTS) is one of the favored techniques. However, the use of conventional PTS technique need excessive number of complex calculations in order to search for all permissible combinations of phase sequences causing steep increase in complexity in terms of complex computations. Paper aims to reduce the cumbersome process of phase selection by making use of the similarity of the phase vectors. The phase vectors are obtained sequentially and thus minimize the number of changes from one phase vector to another. Theoretical analysis shows that computational complexity is significantly reduced with the help of this proposed novel technique. We have also demonstrated that PAPR values are similar i.e. PAPR reduction capability remains similar but at reduced complexity.

Several high-speed wireless systems use Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) due to its advantages. 5G has adopted OFDM and is expected to be considered beyond 5G (B5G). Meanwhile, OFDM has a high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) problem. Hybridization between two PAPR reduction techniques gains the two techniques’ advantages. Hybrid precoding-companding techniques are attractive as they require small computational complexity to achieve high PAPR reduction gain. Many precoding-companding techniques were introduced to increasing the PAPR reduction gain. However, reducing Bit Error Rate (BER) and out-of-band (OOB) radiation are more significant than increasing PAPR reduction gain. This paper proposes a new precoding-companding technique to better reduce the BER and OOB radiation than previous precoding-companding techniques. Results showed that the proposed technique outperforms all previous precoding-companding techniques in BER enhancement and OOB radiation reduction. The proposed technique reduces the Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) by 15 dB compared with 10 dB for the best previous technique. Additionally, the proposed technique increases high power amplifier efficiency (HPA) by 11.4%, while the best previous technique increased HPA efficiency by 9.8%. Moreover, our proposal achieves PAPR reduction gain better than the most known powerful PAPR reduction technique with a 99% reduction in required computational complexity.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), widely used in digital wireless communication, has a major drawback of high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR). A reduced complexity partial transmit sequence (PTS) scheme has been proposed to solve high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. In the proposed PTS scheme, a function is generated by summing the power of time domain samples at time ‘n’ in each sub blocks, known as “Hn”.Only those samples, having Hn greater than or equal to a preset threshold value (αT) are used for peak power calculation during the process of selecting a candidate signal with the lowest PAPR for transmission. As compared to conventional PTS scheme, the proposed scheme achieves almost the same PAPR reduction performance with much lower computational complexity.
