Abstract

OFDM system has high PAPR(Peak-to-Average-Power Ratio) problem. In this paper, we present a low complexity phase weighting method to reduce the computational quantity so that we can cut down the processing time of SPW method. Proposed method is derived from the DFT property of periodical sequences by which PAPR can be reduced efficiently. The simulation results show the same PAPR reduction efficiency of proposed method in comparison with conventional methods. It can reduce 2.15 dB of PAPR with two phase factors and 3.95 dB of PAPR with four phase factors. The computation analysis shows significant improvement in the low complexity phase weighting method.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)은 많은 통신 시스템에서 사용되고 있다. 기존 SPW 방법에서 반복처리로 인한 시간 소요를 단축하기 위하여 계산량 감소를 위한 phase weighting의 계산량 감소 방법을 제안한다. 낮은 복잡도의 phase weighting으로 OFDM 신호의 PAPR(Peak-to-Average-Power Ratio)을 줄이는 방법은 주기적인 sequence들의 DFT(Discrete Fourier Transform)의 성질을 이용한다. PAPR은 적은 계산량을 갖는 phase weighting 방법에 의해 능률적으로 줄일 수 있다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 기존 방식들과 비슷한 PAPR 저감 효과를 갖는다는 것을 보여준다. 제안한 기술은 두 개의 phase factor로 PAPR을 2.15 dB 줄일 수 있고 4개의 phase factor들로 PAPR을 3.95 dB 줄일 수 있다. 계산량 분석에서 phase weighting 방법이 계산량을 매우 감소시킨다.
