SFBC MIMO-OFDM peak-to-average power ratio reduction by polyphase interleaving and inversion

Many PAPR reduction schemes have been proposed for OFDM systems. Among these, the signal scrambling methods such as the partial transmit sequences (PTS) (S. H. Muller, et al., 1997) and selective mapping (SLM) (R. W. Bauml, et al., 1996) are attractive as they obtain better PAPR property by modifying OFDM signals without distortion. These schemes can also be applied to a SFBC MIMO-OFDM system, which is advantageous for dispersive channels, in a straightforward way by performing signal scrambling on data sequence before it is distributed to the transmit antennas according to employed encoding scheme. Note however that in the case of PTS PAPR reduction in the time domain is not possible, which leads to prohibitively large complexity of such scheme. In this letter, we introduce more effective approach, the polyphase interleaving and inversion (PII) PAPR scheme and its reduced complexity version (RC-PII), which is designed to suppress peaks in SFBC-OFDM, transmit diversity.     

MIMO-OFDM peak-to-average power ratio reduction by two-dimensional permutation

A new method to reduce the MIMO-OFDM peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is proposed. This method applies time and spatial two-dimensional subblock permutation to the multiple antenna OFDM system based on a timeslot structure. The PAPR of multiple OFDM symbols can be significantly decreased at the same time with limited complexity

STBC MIMO-OFDM peak-to-average power ratio reduction by cross-antenna rotation and inversion

Multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) has become a promising candidate for high performance 4G broadband wireless communications. However, like OFDM, one main disadvantage of MIMO-OFDM is that the signals transmitted on different antennas might exhibit a prohibitively large peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). We will show that the PAPR reduction for MIMO-OFDM needs a more efficient solution than applying existing schemes for OFDM systems separately on each antenna. Further, we suggest a scheme of cross-antenna rotation and inversion (CARI), which utilizes additional degrees of freedom by employing multiple antennas. Two suboptimal schemes, termed successive suboptimal CARI (SS-CARI) and random suboptimal (RS-CARI) show significant performance advantages and lower computational complexity compared to the concurrent selective mapping (SLM) scheme proposed in Y. -L. Lee et al. (2003).

Sub-optimum PTS for PAPR reduction of OFDM signals

As an attractive technique for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction, partial transmit sequences (PTS) provides good PAPR reduction performance for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals. However, optimum PTS (OPTS) requires an exhaustive search over all combinations of allowed phase factors, resulting in the high complexity. Proposed is a sub-optimum partial transmit sequences (sub-OPTS) for PAPR reduction of OFDM signals. In sub-OPTS, both the alternate optimisation and the linear property of inverse discrete Fourier transform are employed. Simulation results show that sub-OPTS can reduce the computational complexity dramatically and achieve almost the same PAPR reduction performance compared to OPTS.

Also, we make some remarks on the criteria for PAPR reduction technique selection and briefly address the problem of PAPR reduction in OFDMA and MIMO-OFDM.     

用于SFBC MIMO-OFDM系统的改进SLM算法

在空频编码(SFBC)多输入多输出正交频分复用(MIMO-OFDM)系统中传输符号存在较高峰均功率比(PAPR)问题,采用SLM算法能够有效降低系统峰均功率比,但随着发射天线数的增加,较多的快速傅里叶反变换(IFFT)会增加系统的计算复杂度,因此,构造F矩阵并提出了一种基于F矩阵SFBC MIMO-OFDM系统的改进SLM算法。采用F矩阵作为相位序列组对空频编码信号进行独立处理,获得最优相位序列取共轭,将共轭序列中每两个旋转因子为一个单位交换位置,并扰码SFBC后各天线的信号,以此减少了每根发射天线上的IFFT次数。理论和MATLAB仿真分析表明,该算法获得了良好的峰均比性能,同时也降低了系统的计算复杂度。

PTS with Non-Uniform Phase Factors for PAPR Reduction in OFDM Systems

Partial transmit sequence (PTS) is one of the effective and uncomplicated PAPR reduction methods for OFDM systems. The phase factors applied in the weighting sequences are assumed to be uniformly distributed within [0, 2pi). By carefully investigating the phase distribution of OFDM signals, we proposed a modified PTS scheme outperforming the conventional PTS scheme in PAPR reduction performance. The process of the proposed scheme is the same as the conventional PTS, except for applying the new non-uniform phase factors. The required side information is the same as the conventional PTS applying uniform phase factors.     

Unitary peak power reduction in multiple transmit antennas

This paper proposes a new peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction scheme in multiple transmit antenna environments. Instead of applying individual PAPR reduction on each antenna, a joint PAPR reduction technique is proposed. By applying a relevant unitary rotation over the transmit antennas, overall PAPR of the multiple transmit antenna system is reduced. This scheme does not require any side information to decode the signal in the receiver, enabling throughput-lossless PAPR reduction. Furthermore, there is no increase in the complexity of the receiver.

Dual symbol optimization‐based partial transmit sequence technique for PAPR reduction in WOLA‐OFDM waveform

Weighted overlap and add‐orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (WOLA‐OFDM) is a new waveform proposed recently for meeting the requirements of fifth generation (5G) telecommunication standards. In spite of being a serious 5G waveform candidate, WOLA‐OFDM is exposed to the problem of high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) similar to the other waveforms in which multicarrier transmission strategy is employed. Due to the overlapping nature of WOLA‐OFDM waveform, where the extension of the current symbol is overlapped with the extension of the previous symbol, it will not be efficient to apply conventional PTS (C‐PTS) directly to the WOLA‐OFDM waveform. Therefore, in this paper, we propose dual symbol optimization‐based partial transmit sequence (DSO‐PTS) technique for PAPR reduction in WOLA‐OFDM waveform. In our proposed technique, two adjacent symbols are jointly considered when searching for the optimal data block with minimum PAPR unlike the C‐PTS where the adjacent symbols are optimized individually. In the simulations, our proposed DSO‐PTS technique, C‐PTS, and GreenOFDM that is developed recently by modifying the conventional selective mapping (SLM) method are compared with each other with regard to PAPR reduction performance for different search numbers (SNs). In addition, the effects of DSO‐PTS, C‐PTS, and GreenOFDM on the amount of out of band (OOB) radiation in the power spectral density (PSD) graph of WOLA‐OFDM employing solid state power amplifier (SSPA) is measured for different SNs and input back off (IBO) values. According to the simulation results, our proposed DSO‐PTS technique clearly demonstrates a superior PAPR reduction and PSD performance.

A partial transmit sequence technique with error correction capability and low computation

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a popular transmission technique in wireless communication. Although already widely addressed in many studies, OFDM still has flaws, one of which is the occurrence of high peak‐to‐average power ratio (PAPR) in the transmission signal. The partial transmit sequence (PTS) technique is one method adopted to reduce high PAPR in OFDM systems. However, as PTS utilizes phase factors to generate multiple candidate signals, large amounts of calculation and time are required to search the candidate signal with the minimal PAPR, which will then be adopted as the final transmission signal. This paper proposes a novel PAPR reduction method, which can be applied in OFDM systems with M‐ary phase‐shift keying modulation. It not only requires less computation but also possesses error correction capabilities. More precisely, the proposed method is to divide a block‐coded modulation code into the direct sum of a correcting subcode for encoding information bits and a scrambling subcode for generating phase factors. Our proposed method is a suboptimal technique with low computation, because it uses a genetic algorithm with a partheno‐crossover operator as the transmitted signal selection mechanism. Simulation results show our proposed method has better PAPR performance than the GA‐PTS scheme. Based on the simulation results in Figures 5 and 6, it is evident that our proposed method can be employed in any OFDM system by using M‐PSK modulation.Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A new PTS OFDM scheme with low complexity for PAPR reduction

In this paper, we introduce a new partial transmit sequence (PTS) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme with low computational complexity. In the proposed scheme, 2/sup n/-point inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) is divided into two parts. An input symbol sequence is partially transformed using the first l stages of IFFT into an intermediate signal sequence and the intermediate signal sequence is partitioned into a number of intermediate signal subsequences. Then, the remaining n-l stages of IFFT are applied to each of the intermediate signal subsequences and the resulting signal subsequences are summed after being multiplied by each member of a set of W rotating vectors to yield W distinct OFDM signal sequences. The one with the lowest peak to average power ratio (PAPR) among these OFDM signal sequences is selected for transmission. The new PTS OFDM scheme reduces the computational complexity while it shows almost the same performance of PAPR reduction as that of the conventional PTS OFDM scheme.
