Reducing PAPR for OFDM system by using Pulse-shping

OFDM 시스템에서 Pulse-shaping을 이용한 PAPR의 감소 방안

Many methods have been Proposed to reduce the PAPR of the OFDM signal. Among them a method that uses the time waveform of the different sub-carriers. The method is referred to as pulse shaping and it works with arbitrary number of sub-carriers and my type of base-band linear modulation. It has been shown, using this technique, that it is possible to design a set of time waveforms that reduce the PAPR of the OFDM transmitted signal and improve its power spectrum simultaneously. In this paper, we investigate the effect of some of these sets of time waveforms on the OFDM system performance in terms of Bit Error Rate (BER).
