Many PAPR reduction methods for OFDM time domain signal have been proposed up to today, all of which can be classified into two kinds of methods as the distortion and distortion-less methods. The most of distortion-less methods show better PAPR performance without degradation of BER performance. However the distortion-less methods are usually required to control the transmission data information so as to minimize the PAPR performance at the transmitter. From this fact, the distortion-less methods are required to inform the controlled information as the side information to the receiver for the correct demodulation of data information. The side information is usually informed to the receiver with the higher signal quality by using the separate channel or the embedded in the data information which would lead the degradation of transmission efficiency and the increase of hardware complexity of transmitter and receiver. This paper proposes a novel distortion-less PAPR reduction method which employs the permutation of subcarriers in the frequency domain. The feature of proposed method is to achieve the better PAPR performance with a very few embedded side information for the correct demodulation of data information at the receiver. This paper presents various computer simulation results to verify the effectiveness of proposed method as comparing with the conventional OFDM method in the non-linear channel.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technique is becoming the chosen modulation technique for wireless communications. OFDM can provide large data rates with sufficient robustness to radio channel impairments. There are two main drawbacks with OFDM, the peak to average power ratio and its sensitivity to frequency errors. The signal peak to average power ratio reduction solution play an important role to improve performance of OFDM that peak occurs after symbols fed to FFT to produce time domain signal, adding signals up coherently. In This paper we proposes technique to reduce the PAPR using Huffman coding combined with selective interleaver as distortion less scrambling technique. We utilize the amount saved in the total bit rate by the Huffman coding to send the information of the selected interleaver and encoding table for accurate decoding at the receiver without reducing the effective throughput. Performed computer simulations have shown that the proposed scheme outperform the performance of most of the recent PAPR reduction techniques in most cases. By using this method 2.63 dB PAPR reduction is achieved.

One of the major drawbacks of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals is the high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) of the transmitted signal. In this paper, a new method based on hexagonal constellation is proposed to reduce PAPR and to eliminate side information for OFDM signals. In order to get better PAPR reduction performance, we propose a new PAPR reduction algorithm based on parametric minimum cross entropy (PMCE). Simulation results show that PMCE algorithm is an efficient method to achieve significant PAPR reduction.

The filter bank multicarrier employing offset quadrature amplitude modulation (FBMC/OQAM) is a candidate transmission scheme for 5G wireless communication systems. However, it has a high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). Due to the nature of overlapped signal structure of FBMC/OQAM, conventional PAPR reduction schemes cannot work effectively. A hybrid PAPR reduction scheme based on selective mapping (SLM) and multi data block partial transmit sequence (M-PTS) methods is proposed for FBMC/OQAM signals in this paper. Different from the simple SLM-PTS method, the proposed hybrid algorithm takes into account the overlapping effect of multiple adjacent data blocks on its PTS process. From simulation results, it can be obtained that the proposed method can offer a significant PAPR reduction performance improvement compared with the SLM, PTS and SLM-PTS methods. The proposed method can effectively reduce the PAPR in FBMC/OQAM systems.

AbstractA major drawback of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals is the high value of peak to average power ratio (PAPR). Partial transmit sequences (PTS) is a popular PAPR reduction method with good PAPR reduction performance, but its search complexity is high. In this paper, in order to reduce PTS search complexity we propose a new technique based on biogeography-based optimization (BBO). More specifically, we present a new Generalized Oppositional Biogeography Based Optimization (GOBBO) algorithm which is enhanced with Oppositional Based Learning (OBL) techniques. We apply both the original BBO and the new Generalized Oppositional BBO (GOBBO) to the PTS problem. The GOBBO-PTS method is compared with other PTS schemes for PAPR reduction found in the literature. The simulation results show that GOBBO and BBO are in general highly efficient in producing significant PAPR reduction and reducing the PTS search complexity.
