Abstract
The precoding scheme based on real Hadamard transform is an effective and flexible way for reducing the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of OFDM signals. However, the reduction capacity of PAPR is limited for real Hadamard transform method. In this paper, the new scheme based on complex Hadamard transform is proposed. The simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme may obtain a 1.2 dB PAPR reduction of OFDM signal with only moderate complexity compared with the real Hadamard transform.
Highlights
This OFDM plays a significant role in the modem telecommunications for both wireless and wired communication since it provides an efficient means to mitigate the intersymbol interference (ISI) caused by the channel multipalth spread and high data transmission
The price to pay for a significant decrease in peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is a loss in data rate due to the transmission of several side information bits that are required for original data block recovery at the receiver side
This paper aims to apply sequency-ordered complex Hadamard transform (SCHT) to reduce the PAPR of OFDM signals
Summary
This OFDM (orthogonal-frequency-division multiplexing) plays a significant role in the modem telecommunications for both wireless and wired communication since it provides an efficient means to mitigate the intersymbol interference (ISI) caused by the channel multipalth spread and high data transmission. To reduce the PAPR, many techniques have been proposed [1,2], such as clipping, coding, partial transmit sequence (PTS) [3], selected mapping (SLM), nonlinear companding transforms [4], and Hadamard transforms [5] Among those PAPR reduction methods, the simplest scheme to use is the clipping process. The SLM scheme is relatively attractive since it can obtain better PAPR by modifying the OFDM signal without distortion With this technique, the price to pay for a significant decrease in PAPR is a loss in data rate due to the transmission of several side information bits that are required for original data block recovery at the receiver side. This paper aims to apply sequency-ordered complex Hadamard transform (SCHT) to reduce the PAPR of OFDM signals.
