Abstract
In this paper, trellis shaping is applied to reducing the Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of NC-OFDM signals due to the fact that the total number of active subcarriers and their locations might change continuously in a dynamic spectrum access network. A new branch metric of trellis shaping is proposed which reduces the PAPR of OFDM signals through minimizing the variance of the power by VA decoder. The overall performance considerably depends on the type of signal mapping, and therefore a new type of 64QAM mapping method is designed. Simulation results show that this scheme significantly reduces the PAPR. Finally, a significant phenomenon is demonstrated that the PAPR of NC-OFDM signals in which the deactivated carriers is distributed in the Bernoulli distribution has better performance than that of OFDM signals.
