A recursive optimum frequency domain matrix to reduce crest factor in OFDM systems

One of the main imperfections in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technique is a peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) or crest factor (CF). High crest factor signal forces a power amplifier in communication systems to back-off which leads to power efficiency degradation. Several techn...

description One of the main imperfections in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technique is a peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) or crest factor (CF). High crest factor signal forces a power amplifier in communication systems to back-off which leads to power efficiency degradation. Several techniques have been proposed in literature to mitigate the high peaks in OFDM signal; however most of them suffer from complexity and PAPR performance. In this paper a novel crest factor scheme based on recursive optimum frequency domain matrix is proposed which requires only two IFFT which results in significant reduction in the computational complexity. Simulation results show both the complexity and crest factor are reduced significantly compared to the conventional methods.
