Abstract

Next generation mobile telecommunication networks will provide high data rates needed for multimedia rich applications as the demand in mobile broadband services is expected to increase in the coming years. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technique has been increasing its popularity as a transmission scheme for several radio technologies. One of the challenging issues in OFDM technique is its high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). This paper studies the performance of PAPR in long term evolution (LTE) of universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS). The implementation will be based on specifications and protocols from 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) work groups. The simulator used to simulate UMTS-LTE environment has been developed in Matlab which follows the standard according to UMTS-LTE physical layer transmission scheme. Evaluation results show that reduction of PAPR can be seen in UMTS-LTE model compared to conventional OFDM model.
