In this paper, a new non-redundant three-layer peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction technique is proposed for filter bank multicarrier communication based visible light communication (FBMC based VLC) systems. In the proposed technique, the FBMC based VLC data signal is overlapped with two new non-redundant signals. The initial-layer signals are the FBMC modulated signals. For PAPR reduction, the second-layer signals are constructed to decrease initial-layer large-amplitude signals, while the last-layer signals are used to improve the initial-layer small-amplitude signals. The two non-redundant signals do not overlap with the data signals in the frequency domain, because data signals are distributed on odd subcarriers, while even subcarriers are occupied by the constructed signals. To mitigate the effect of large-amplitude signal reduction in the proposed technique, the negative signals are converted into positive, rather than being clipped off as in conventional FBMC based VLC systems. In order to realize a trade-off between PAPR reduction and bit error rate (BER), we introduce a scaling factor in the converted signals. The performance of the proposed technique is calculated in terms of complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) and BER. The obtained results indicate that FBMC based VLC systems with the proposed technique can achieve a good trade-off between PAPR reduction and BER and outperforms the corresponding orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based VLC systems.
