Abstract

High Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) is one of the major drawbacks in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). The high PAPR increases the complexity of Analogue to Digital (A/D) and Digital to Analogue (D/A) converters and also reduces the efficiency of RF High Power Amplifier (HPA). In this paper, we propose two novel PAPR reduction techniques for OFDM systems, Zadoff-Chu matrix Transform (ZCT) precoding based PAPR reduction technique and ZCT postcoding based PAPR reduction technique. Simulation results show that, at clip rate of 10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">-1</sup> , the PAPR of our both proposed systems reduced to 0dB, 3dB, 4.1dB and 4.3dB for M-QAM (where M = 4, 16, 64, 256). Both ZCT precoding and postcoding based OFDM systems are shown better PAPR gain and Bit Error Rate (BER) performance than Walsh Hadamard Transform precoded OFDM (WHT-OFDM) and OFDM conventional.
