Abstract

The FBMC generation techniques are found to surmount the disadvantages of the IFFT/FFT based OFDM system. The minimization of PAPR is a much sought after solution by all multi-carrier methods. This paper investigates the possibility of a unified approach for error control coding and PAPR minimization in an FBMC-OQAM system. A new coding procedure called Constrained Message Length (CML) coding is presented in this paper. A new perspective on PAPR and an analytical framework for estimating the PAPR is also presented. Hybrid techniques using coding and companding are tested for different channel models, and their BER performance is on par with the BCH system. The proposed system is of low complexity and has a PAPR of only 3.81 dB, which is better than or comparable with the existing systems that are using complex methods. This paper has uniquely investigated the dependence of PAPR on the input data variation for a different set of random data loads. The CML coding proposed here can minimize the input data dependent PAPR deviation to a low variance of 0.045 dB, which provides an increased linear region of operation to the power amplifier in the RF section.
