Peak-to-Average Power Ratio Reduction of an OFDM Signal by Signal Set Expansion
Overview A major drawback of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of the transmitted signal. This paper proposes a novel technique to reduce PAPR in an OFDM signal. Proposed technique is based on signal set expansion. Each point in the original signal set is associated with two or more points in the expanded signal set. Each symbol in an OFDM data block is mapped into a point among associated points in the expanded signal set so as to achieve PAPR reduction. The proposed technique is very simple and does not require any side information to be transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver.
