Abstract

The drawbacks of high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) can outweigh all the potential benefits of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) signals. In this Paper, a sophisticated PAPR reduction technique, named Iterative Clipping and filtering (ICF) with DCT/IDCT transformation, is proposed for OFDM system. By considering the example of OFDM, with Quadrature Phase-Shift Keying (QPSK) mapping, simulation results under Matlab environment show that the new proposed method performs well in reducing PAPR.
