Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM) is one of the most promising techniques for 4th generation communication systems. One of the main disadvantages of OFDM is the Peak to Average Power Ratio(PAPR). In this paper, a recoverable peak cancellation(RPC) technique that recovers the cancelled part for the peak-cancelled OFDM signal is introduced. Using the RPC technique, the bit error rate(BER) performance can be greatly improved and the efficiency of the PAPR reduction is nearly that of the clipping method, at a cost of slightly reducing the transmission data rate.

본 논문은 OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) 시스템에서 PAPR (peak-to-average power ratio) 감소 기법으로 복잡도가 낮은 컴팬딩 (companding) 기법을 고려한다. 기존의 컴팬딩 함수는 시스템 요구 사항에 따라 설계하기 어렵고 비트오류율 성능 열화가 매우 큰 단점이 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 임의의 최대 PAPR 값을 제공하고 그에 따라 비트오류율 성능이 점진적으로 바뀌는 스케일러블 컴팬딩 함수를 제안한다. 제안하는 컴팬딩 함수는 시스템이 요구하는 PAPR 성능과 비트오류율 성능에 따라 쉽게 설계할 수 있으며, 모의실험 결과 같은 PAPR 조건에서 기존의 클리핑이나 $\mu$-low 기법보다 우수한 비트오류율 성능을 제공함을 볼 수 있다.

PB/MC-CDMA(Partial Block Multi Carrier Code Division Multilple Access) 시스템은 사용자간의 코드 간 간섭을 줄임으로써 성능을 향상 시키는 시스템이다. 또한, 이 시스템은 심볼 간 간섭을 피하면서 주파수 다이버시티 이득을 얻을 수 있어 MC-CDMA(Multi Carrier Code Division Multiple Access) 시스템보다 향상된 성능을 보여준다. 그러나, 다중캐리어를 사용함으로써 PAPR 문제가 발생하여 시스템의 성능을 저하 시킨다. 이 논문에서는, PB/MC-CDMA 시스템에서 추가적인 정보 없이 여분의 확산 코드를 이용하여 최적화된 확산코드를 선택함으로써, 피크전력을 줄이는 방법을 제안한다. PB/MC-CDMA 시스템은 각 블록 단위로 확산 코드를 재사용함으로써, 여분의 코드가 남게 된다. 이러한 여분의 코드를 여러 개의 그룹으로 나누어 PAPR(Peak to Average Power Ratio)을 계산하고, 피크전력이 최소가 되는 코드를 선택하여 전송함으로써 PAPR 문제를 해결할 수 있는 방법이다.

In this paper, we propose the bus coding technique for low power consumption. For CMOS circuit most power is dissipated as dynamic power for charging and discharging node capacitances.Though the I/O and bus are likely to have the very large capacitances associated with them and dissipate much of the power dissipated by an IC, they have little beenthe special target for power reduction. The conventional Bus-Invert coding method can't decrease the peak power dissipation by 50% because the additional invert signal line can invoke a transition at the time when Bus-Invert coding isn't used to code original bus data. The proposed technique always constraints the Hamming distance between data transferred sequentially to be below the half of the bus width, and thus decrease the I/O peak power dissipation and the I/O average power dissipation.

This study proposes a novel low-complexity algorithm for computing inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT)/fast Fourier transform (FFT) operations in binary phase shift keying-modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communication systems without requiring any twiddle factor multiplications. The peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction capacity of an efficient PAPR reduction technique, that is, H-SLM method, is evaluated using the proposed IFFT algorithm without any complex multiplications, and the impact of oversampling factor for the accurate calculation of PAPR is analyzed. The power spectral density of an OFDM signal generated using the proposed multiplierless IFFT algorithm is also examined. Moreover, the bit-error-rate performance of the H-SLM technique with the proposed IFFT/FFT algorithm is compared with the classical methods. Simulation results show that the proposed IFFT/FFT algorithm used in the H-SLM method requires no complex multiplications, thereby minimizing power consumption as well as the area of IFFT/FFT processors used in OFDM communication systems.

Peak power reduction techniques in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been an important subject for many researchers for over 20 years. In this letter, we propose a side-information-free technique that is based on the concept of random variable (RV) transformation. The suggested method transforms RVs into other RVs, aiming to reshape the constellation that will consequently produce OFDM symbols with a reduced peak-to-average power ratio. The proposed method has no limitation on the mapping type or the mapping order and has no significant effect on the bit error rate performance compared to other methods presented in the literature. Additionally, the computational complexity does not increase.

Orthogonal freqency division multiplexing (OFDM) is an attractive technique for achieving high-bit-rate wireless data transmission. However, the potentially large peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) has limited its application; An OFDM signal with the large PAPR can cause power degradation (In-band distortion) and spectral spreading (Out-of-band distortion) by being clipped passing through a power amplifier. Thus, we propose the combining algorithm of Hadamard transform and phase shift, which is ascribed to the relation between the correlation of the IFFT input sequence function and PAPR. Extensive computer simulations show that the combining algorithm is an effective technique to reduce PAPR.

왈시-하다마다 변환(Walsh-Hadamard Transform, WHT)을 적용한 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 변조방법은 시스템의 PAPR(Peak-to-Average Power Ratio)을 줄여주고, 시스템의 BER(Bit Error Rate) 성능을 향상시키는 장점이 있다. 그러나 기존의 이러한 왈시-하다마다 변환에 기반한 OFDM 시스템은 여전히 비교적으로 높은 PAPR문제가 있다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 DGT(Data Grouping Technique)이라고 부르는 기술을 제안하고, 이 기술과 왈시-하다마다 변환 기술을 적용하여 PAPR을 더욱 줄여주는 OFDM 시스템을 설계한다. 제안한 DGT기술은 WHT-OFDM뿐만 아니라 일반 OFDM에서 PAPR을 줄여주는 방법들 중에서 큰 단점이 되는 부가정보(side information)가 성능에 대해 독립성을 가진다는 특징이 있다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안한 시스템의 유용성을 검사하고 성능을 검증하였다.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals suffer from the problem of high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), which complicates the design of analog front-end of the system. Companding is a well-known PAPR reduction technique that involves transforming signal amplitudes using a deterministic function. OFDM signal amplitude, on average, is Rayleigh distributed but the distribution can vary significantly from symbol to symbol, especially when constellation size increases. In this paper, a new adaptive companding scheme is proposed along with its design methodology aiming at optimizing the compander performance by accommodating this variation in its design. This is achieved by designing compander parameters separately for statistically dissimilar symbols in OFDM waveform and making the compander select from these parameters, during run-time, according to the features of input symbols.

A photovoltaic power conditioning system (PV PCS) that contains single-phase dc/ac inverters tends to draw an ac ripple current at twice the output frequency. Such a ripple current perturbs the operating points of solar cells continuously and it may reduce the efficiency of the current based maximum power point tracking technique (CMPPT). In this paper, the ripple current generation in a dc link and boost inductor is analyzed using the ac equivalent circuit of a dc/dc boost converter. A new feed-forward ripple current compensation method to incorporate a current control loop into a dc/dc converter for ripple reduction is proposed. The proposed feed-forward compensation method is verified by simulation and experimental results. These results show a 41.8 % reduction in the peak-to peak ac ripple. In addition, the dc/ac inverter control system uses an automatic voltage regulation (AVR) function to mitigate the ac ripple voltage effect in the dc link. A 3kW PV PCS prototype has been built and its experimental results are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
