Abstract

The 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution (LTE) standard uses single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) scheme for the uplink transmissions and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing access (OFDMA) in downlink. In this paper, we point on the Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) reduction for the uplink SC-FDMA system. Firstly, the conventional Tone Reservation (TR) is investigated. Then, the approach SOCP (Second Order Cone Programming) is applied for the complex baseband signals of SC-FDMA system with different subcarrier mapping. For the method TR, these subcarriers are located on unused subcarriers of SC-FDMA and we use a raised-cosine pulse. Besides, we prove that the IFDMA can be reduced the PAPR more than the localized FDMA (LFDMA) and distributed FDMA (DFDMA). Finally, this method does not degrade the bit-error-rate (BER) and the data bit rate and no side information (SI) transmission is obligatory.
