Active point modification for sidelobe suppression with PAPR constraint in OFDM systems

In this paper, we propose an active point modification (APM) scheme to suppress the sidelobe of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals, and the key idea of APM is slightly enlarging the amplitudes of constellation points on some sub-carriers while keeping unchanged the minimum distance between constellation points. Moreover, the peak-to-average power ratio of the OFDM signal is considered. We formulate the sidelobe suppression problem by APM as a quadratically constrained quadratic programming problem, which could be solved by numerical tools. Simulation results show that APM could provide well sidelobe suppression performance while the peak-to-average power ratio could be efficiently controlled at a desired level.

Subcarrier weighting: a method for sidelobe suppression in OFDM systems

In this letter, a method for sidelobe suppression in OFDM systems is proposed and investigated. The proposed method is based on the multiplication of the used subcarriers with subcarrier weights. The subcarrier weights are determined in such a way that the sidelobes of the transmission signal are minimized according to an optimization algorithm which allows several optimization constraints. As a result, sidelobe suppression by subcarrier weighting reduces OFDM sidelobes by more than 10 dB in the average without requiring the transmission of any side information.

Sidelobe Suppression Using Extended Active Interference Cancellation with Self-Interferences Constraint for Cognitive OFDM Systems

Recently, increasing attention is paid to improving the spectrum utilization in cognitive OFDM systems. To enable coexistence between secondary users and primary users, a scheme, called as extended active interference cancellation (EAIC), was proposed for the effective sidelobe suppression of OFDM signals. However, with the EAIC method, the cancellation signals cause self-interferences to OFDM data subcarriers, which seriously degrades the symbol-error-rate performance, especially, when a high order modulation is used. In this paper, we analyze the self-interferences and formulate the minimization of both the total sidelobe power and the self-interferences as a optimization problem, which could be solved by least square method with acceptable complexity for OFDM communication systems nowadays. Simulation results show that the proposed EAIC-IC scheme provides a good sidelobe suppression performance of about 38.0 dB with signal-to-noise ratio loss less than 0.10 dB at symbol-error-rate of 10^− 3 when 64 QAM modulation is employed. Moreover, the proposed EAIC-IC scheme can provide an arbitrary tradeoff between the sidelobe suppression and the symbol-error-rate performance via adjusting the constraint parameter.

OFDM MIMO radar waveform design for targets identification

In order to obtain better target identification performance, an efficient waveform design method with high range resolution and low sidelobe level for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar is proposed in this paper. First, the wideband CP-based OFDM signal is transmitted on each antenna to guarantee large bandwidth and high range resolution. Next, a complex orthogonal design (COD) is utilized to achieve code domain orthogonality among antennas, so that the spatial diversity can be obtained in MIMO radar, and only the range sidelobe on the first antenna needs suppressing. Furthermore, sidelobe suppression is expressed as an optimization problem. The integrated sidelobe level (ISL) is adopted to construct the objective function, which is solved using the Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS) algorithm. The numerical results demonstrate the superiority in performance (high resolution, strict orthogonality, and low sidelobe level) of the proposed method compared to existing algorithms.
