PAPR Reduction of OFDM Signal Using Sequential Phase Sequence SLM Based Transceiver without Side Information

Researches in the reduction of peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) from orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) output signals are being done using many techniques. Selected mapping (SLM) technique is a distortion-less technique and is a well known method to reduce high PAPR of OFDM signal. One drawback of SLM is its requirement of side information bits to recover original data block at the receiver side which lead rate of data loss. In this paper, we have proposed a sequential phase sequence SLM (SPS-SLM) based OFDM transceiver without side information and studied its performance. For the proposed method, a specific set of phase sequences is designed. MATLAB simulation shows that the proposed scheme performs well in terms of PAPR. Proposed method provides almost the same PAPR reduction performance compared to the conventional SLM method requiring side information.
