ABSTRACT


The non-linear distortion caused by high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) oftransmitted signal is a major drawback in the OFDM systems. In this paper, the proposed PAPRreduction scheme is to choose the corresponding symbol patterns with a low PAPR in the expandedsignal space. However, the scheme has a high complexity for the selection of symbolpattern with the smallest signal power in a larger expanded signal space. The scheme could berealized as a signal mapping from the original information symbols to the corresponding patterns.With the selection of the corresponded symbol patterns, the PAPR could be greatly reduced. Accordingto the simulation results with the proposed scheme, while the length of the data frame is16 and the signal expansion with adding 1 bit and 2 bits, the PAPR changing rate could be 20percents and 16 percents of the original PAPA, respectively. However, there is no prominent improvementon PAPR reduction with more than 8 bits for using the signal expansion scheme.
