Abstract

Clipping is an efficient and simple method that can reduce the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals. However, clipping causes in-band distortion referred to as clipping noise. To resolve this problem, a novel iterative estimation and cancellation (IEC) scheme for clipping noise is one of the most popular schemes because it can significantly improve the performance of clipped OFDM systems. However, IEC exploits detected symbols at the receiver to estimate the clipping noise in principle and the detected symbols are not the sufficient statistic in terms of estimation theory. In this paper, we propose the post-processing technique of IEC, which fully exploits given sufficient statistic at the receiver and thus further enhances the performance of a clipped OFDM system as verified by simulations.
