Abstract

In this paper, different techniques for reducing Peak To Average Power Ratio (PAPR) is discussed. The performance of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) system is degraded if the peak-toaverage power ratio(PAPR) is high. An OFDM system dynamic range is typically two or four times larger than a single carrier system increasing value of the dynamic range will lead to an increased cost, power consumption of transmitter amplifier and also lead to high peak to average power ratio (PAPR). This is one of the major drawbacks of OFDM system. A serious problem of large PAPR presents when energy-inefficient nonlinear power amplifiers are used. Several techniques have been proposed to reduce PAPR in OFDM system, out of that few are selective mapping (SLM), tone reservation and partial transmit sequence. SLM method could be used to reduce PAPR, however, it causes the BER degradation and increases computational complexity. The good improvement in PAPR given by the present techniques permits the reduction of the complexity and cost of the transmitter significantly.
