Abstract

Multiple input and multiple output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) is a prominent technology for fourth generation mobile radio communication. OFDM is a special case of multi-carrier-modulation (MCM) technique that divides the high data rate input bit streams into large number of lower rate sub streams and each sub stream is transmitted over orthogonal subcarriers. The main advantage of MIMO-OFDM system is the efficient utilization of band width, multipath delay spread tolerance and mitigation of inter symbol interference (ISI) in frequency selective fading channels. However, the main drawback of MIMO-OFDM system is high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) for large number of sub carriers which causes serious degradation in performance. One of the well-known peak to average power ratio (PAPR) reduction schemes for MIMO-OFDM systems is selected mapping (SLM) scheme. In this work computational complexity of MIMO-OFDM system is reduced by adding mapping signal sequences to the OFDM signal sequences. It also increases the PAPR reduction performance of the MIMO-OFDM system.
