Partial transition sequence algorithms for reducing peak to average power ratio in the next generation wireless communications systems

الملخص EN

The unprecedented scientific and technical advancements along with the ever-growing needs of humanity resulted in a revolution in the field of communication.

Hence, single carrier waves are being replaced by multi-carrier systems like Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) and Generalized Frequency Division Multiplexing (GFDM) which are nowadays commonly implemented.

In the OFDM system, orthogonally placed subcarriers are used to carry the data from the transmitter to the receiver end.

The presence of guard band in these systems helps in dealing with the problem of intersymbol interference (ISI) and noise is minimized by the larger number of subcarriers.

However, the large Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of these signals has undesirable effects on the system.

PAPR itself can cause interference and degradation of Bit Error Rate (BER).

To reduce High Peak to Average Power Ratio and Bit Error Rate problems, more techniques are used.

Furthermore, each technique has its own disadvantages, such as complexity in-band distortion and out-of-band radiation into OFDM and GFDM signals.

In this paper, the emphasis will be put on the GFDM systems as well as on the methods that are meant to reduce the PAPR problem and improve efficiency.
