scholarly journals A Novel Signal Scrambling Technique for PAPR Reduction in OFDM Systems

OFDM forms the basis of the upcoming next generation technologies so as to achieve higher data rates within a given bandwidth effectively. One of the major issues associated with OFDM is Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) which needs to be minimized to get an efficient performance. The random variation in the signal amplitude of the OFDM signal leads to additional interference in the system and hence affecting the performance of HPA in non-linear region. In this paper, we propose a technique for the reduction of PAPR in OFDM systems with some increased complexity which works for any modulation type and any number of subcarriers. The simulation results show performance improvement with respect to the existing signal scrambling techniques

The main defect of OFDM systems is its high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). To decrease PAPR, Adaptive Huffman coding is essential. Encoding is transferred by two encoding techniques Huffman coding and Adaptive Huffman coding at the transmitter side. Mapping is done by QAM 16 and PSK 16.The PAPR results of Huffman and adaptive Huffman coding with QAM 16 and PSK 16 is compared. Simulation results shows that the Adaptive Huffman coding along with QAM 16 produces fruitful results in comparison with Huffman coding and adaptive Huffman coding with PSK 16.

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.

AbstractIn this paper, security issues for optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) systems are emphasized. The encryption has been done on the data of coded OFDM symbols using data encryption standard (DES) algorithm before transmitting through the fiber. The results obtained justify that the DES provides better security to the input data without further bandwidth requirement. The data is transmitted to a distance of 1,000 km in a single-mode fiber with 16-quadrature amplitude modulation. The peak-to-average power ratio and optical signal-to-noise ratio of secure coded OFDM signal is fairly better than the conventional OFDM signal.

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.

The V-BLAST wireless communication architecture, space-time block code (STBC), and space-frequency block code (SFBC) techniques are strong candidates for achieving very high data rates in 4G broadband wireless communications. This paper extends the efficient Active Constellation Extension Smart Gradient-Project (ACE-SGP) peak-to-average power (PAPR) reduction method to STBC, SFBC, and V-BLAST systems. Simulation results show 4.19 and 3.57 dB of PAPR reduction for the Alamouti STBC and SFBC, respectively.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a powerful modulation choice for wideband wireless communication systems. However, its high peak-to-average power ratio greatly limits the high power amplifier (HPA) power efficiency. Here, we present the design of an adaptive predistorter to compensate the distortion caused by the HPA. Specifically, we deal with the implementation issue of the proposed predistorter in Lee and de Figueiredo's work (2006). The performance improvement by predistorter is verified by both floating-point simulation and fixed-point simulation, where the latter includes the distortion effects from the hardware. The bit widths for OFDM signals, ADC, and DAC are evaluated, and the bit width of 10 is shown to be sufficient for the hardware design.

This paper describes an impairment commonly encountered in an OFDM system that must be considered in the design that is peak average power ratio (PAPR). In these studies, a statistical approach to analysing PAPR is suggested. The PAPR statistics of OFDM and VFFT-OFDM are studied by simulation of the statistical distribution of the quantity that is the Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF) of the PAPR. The simulation results show that the simulated CCDF of PAPR, the 1% PAPR of OFDM is about 11.40 dB, whereas for VFFT-OFDM this rises to less than 3% of the time. Simulations show that by employing VFFT in OFDM system results in a 0.55 dB deterioration in the PAPR 1% of time.

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.

In this letter, we proposed a simple balanced-detection reception scheme for the half-cycled single-sideband direct-detected optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (HSSB DD-OFDM) signal with decreased guard band. By employing this scheme, each entire OFDM symbol can be recovered perfectly, while the signal-to-signal beat interference (SSBI) can be eliminated, the guard band can be reduced greatly and the tolerance to phase noise induced inter-channel interference (PN-ICI) and potential benefit of low peak to average power (PAPR) are retained. The simulation results demonstrate that a 40 Gbps 16-QAM HSSB DD-OFDM signal was achieved successfully.

VLC (Visible Light Communications) have been recently proposed as a new form of wireless communications. The VLC advantages are its usage of the spectrum of visible light which is not licensed; additionally, it gives high data rates, protects the user against espionage and does not suffer from interference of the electromagnetic spectrum. One of the main techniques used in VLC is HACO-OFDM (Hybrid Asymmetrically Clipped Optical - Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), which offers a high spectral efficiency. However, one of its main problems is its high PAPR (Peak-to-Average-Power Ratio). This article presents a study and simulation of Clipping, CE-POCS (Constellation Extension – Project Onto Convex Sets), OPS (Orthogonal Pilot Sequences) and SAP (Simple Amplitude Predistortion) techniques for the reduction of the PAPR in HACO-OFDM systems. The simulation results show that the SAP technique gives the best results in PAPR reduction without significant degradation in the BER (Bit Error Rate).
